@Columbia Cornel West arrived to Columbia and hopped the fence of the south lawn, to massive applause (and some kids asking “Who is that?”). “Use your platform for peace!” someone tells him as he readies to hop. “And justice!” he adds.
Also @Hind_Gaza confirmed this is happening: the IDF has quadcopters luring people to them with recordings of the sound of women and children screaming, then firing on them

Columbia President Minouche Shafik’s email justifying her choice to unleash the NYPD on her students, forcibly clearing their Gaza solidarity encampment. Important to note that the police needed her go-ahead to conduct the sweep
Surprisely in depth CNN coverage on a drone strike on a group of small children who were just playing foosball
It’s the Streisand effect, day after day, all day long lol. College kids are smart. You can’t fool them any more than you can put a lid on freedom! The more you try to forbid them from learning about liberation, the more they WILL teach each other.

For anyone who couldn't make it, here's a 🧵 from the @Insideschools webinar on reading reform in NYC public schools. Some great insights from parents and admins on the progress and challenges schools face as science of reading-based curriculum is introduced across city schools.

The facts are clear. The people of Ohio stand with Gaza and demand an immediate and permanent ceasefire. It is long past time for our elected officials to represent their consituents and stop the U.S. government’s funding of Israel.
Simply put: @cledocumenters coverage is the best crash course in local gov there is. Hundreds of Greater Cleveland residents have covered 1,000+ meetings in about 3 years. Here are some ways folks at @signalcleveland pass along what I call the “baton of civic info” to the public:

Huge solidarity. THIS is how faculty show concern for students' safety. I hope those of us faculty elsewhere can collectively commit to do the same should we need to for our students. What i really hope, though, is that universities stop sicking the cops on their students. ffs.

The idea of seeing my students, amazing people i see & think with & work with every week, being grabbed, ziptied, dragged away by cops - makes my blood boil to even imagine... Shafik & Columbia admin must not give a shit about their students, or that sight would be intolerable.
Thanks so much for supporting my reporting these past two days, and beyond. It’s an incredible honor to document moments in history — especially as a scrappy lil indie with no institutional backing — and I’m genuinely only able to do it because of y’all.
