Just as students are now meeting at the Sundial at @Columbia in defiance of administrative pressure, members of the Students for a Democratic Society and the Students Afro-American Society met in 1968 to demand an end to war research and expansion into Harlem. #TheyWillWin
So which attorneys will represent the suspended #ColumbiaUniversity in the law suits that will surely come? Now is the time! In 1968, some of the parents of protesters represented those who were arrested.
I'm writing about brave students and #Ferguson activists who led an #OccupySLU campaign in STL and camped on campus for 6 days. There's room for critique, but I respect that admin listened to faculty who advised not to arrest peaceful protesters not harming anyone. #Lesson
"These kids need to be spanked" were the words of an #NYPD officer justifying brutality in the police "bust" of 712 students in Apr. 1968 at Columbia. The sentiment hasn't changed among police, politicians, and administrators at #ColumbiaUniversity #EmoryUniversity #UTAustin
I'm sorry, Bro. Unfortunately, saw this coming.
Shoutout to these CUNY students. City College undergrads are largely a working class, often first gen (45%), commuter population.

You can try to evict, arrest, and suspend students, but you can't keep the issues off campus. Here are #ColumbiaUniversity #Princeton and #Harvard learners engaging the world in 1967. They eventually created renown plays, operas, became lawyers and educators. #studentpower
Just as #MLK knew that he could count on reactionary racist state violence in his campaign to morally suade moderates, these students understand campus arrests will recruit moderates to their cause. Go safe!
I mean this with no malice in my heart whatsoever, who is advising the decision-makers at #ColumbiaUniversity??? The threat of introducing the #NationalGuard will not have the effect the administration anticipates. This harkens to cold war brinksmanship.
55 years ago at @Princeton, the Association of Black Collegians campaigned to #divest of $127m in apartheid southern Africa the same way that #ColumbiaUniversity students are calling for divestment today. They got change then, and students will get it now. #UpendingtheIvoryTower
"We want to thank you for taking the first steps in this struggle...The Black community is taking over," said H. Rap Brown at #ColumbiaUniversity in '68. Diff between now and then is the threat of the surrounding community treating CU like the university treats Harlem.
Disruption is the point! I thought they knew. Welp, as the refrain in 1968 went: "Two, three, many Columbias!" #ColumbiaUniversity #UpendingtheIvoryTower
Taking the protest from the lawn where students are encamped today at #ColumbiaUniversity, young activists took over Hamilton Hall, demanding an end to war research and to the construction of a gym in a small park that bordered Harlem and the campus. #studentpower
56 years ago today, a radical coalition of students at #ColumbiaUniversity occupied the very same spaces where contemporary learners now demonstrate. They protested CU's complicity with war, its land grab in West Harlem, and its condescension to students. I'll post more today!
There's nothing new under the sun! I wrote a book about how, in 1968, @Columbia thought it could evict, police, and warmonger its way to peace. Resulted in a campus takeover, 6-week student strike, and decades of bitterness. Students led the way and will again. #studentpower
Years ago, at a conf on democracy and higher ed, I was asked what administrations should do when controversial issues come to campus. I said that a pres is going to catch smoke either way they go, so choose righteousness and justice. Now is the time because history is watching!
Good!
Students will find a way to resist. Don't play with them!

I visited the UIUC student encampment today. Speaking with a number of them, I want to share they are a group of young people deeply committed to education, ethics, humanity, justice, & liberation for all. They deserve all the support we are capable of giving.

I've collected a list of 54 names of folks who were arrested and given them to folks inside County CJC. I've been told booking abd processing will be happening quckly and folks will be released in groups. First group of 5 just released.
