Messages of support and strength from Rafah to the student movement ❤️ this is who we fight for
those saying that focusing on police response to students is distraction from ending genocide.. Respectfully, no Police are anti-Black *occupying* force on Indigenous lands everywhere, enforcers of global racial colonial modernity. Decolonization & abolition are intertwined.
Seeing way too much “college kids are out of control” and not enough “they’ve uncovered multiple civilian mass graves in Palestine”
Our time on this earth is so brief. We might as well be brave.
This, right now, is what happens when you only study social movements to put them down.

I was a third-year college student before this genocide started, but I'll never be able to finish my studies because Israeli occupation forces bombed my university and every other university in Gaza. Thanks to the brave college students who are protesting and advocating for us,…
Reporter: Evidence at Gaza mass graves show torture and signs of being buried alive, Palestinians called for an independent investigation, what’s wrong with that? Patel: We’re asking Israel Reporter: You’re asking the accused to investigate itself? Patel: We’re asking Israel
This goes hard. 🍉❤️🖤💚 #copsoffcampus
No other institution in society has the built-in release valve that universities do: many a campus movement has been blunted by the end of term. College & political leaders could just wait a couple weeks, or even days, til most campuses cleared. Instead, they choose violence.

“what struck me most about those who are protesting is how long they waited. the restraint they showed. not the spontaneity, the restraint. they waited and waited for justice. and it didn’t come. no one talks about that...” - Toni Morrison
I’m Black member of the faculty at @Columbia who is absolutely appalled and terrified by the police power on campus in recognition of my and my community’s disproportionate vulnerability to their ways of warfare. #copsoffcampus #abolition #freepalestine

the actual encampment at Columbia—i'm here after teaching my final class of the semester—is downright tranquil, impossibly sweet. there is a "nut zone" for the safety of kids with allergies.
“The panic itself produces ‘the campus,’ about which there is always more panicking still to do. … What was strange was not that the campus had suddenly become a police station, but rather that it turned out already to have been one all along.” @lint_ax parapraxismagazine.com/articles/the-c…
University administrations are repeating brutalities in the name of “safety” in order to invent public consent. Because it is decided and enacted by institutions of higher learning, and with the full backing of the state, it must be rational and prudent. It unequivocally is not.
Columbia U is playing w/ lives. Evacuations set & reset w/ fear of arrest+ w/each; contd surveillance & informing; misrepresentation (if not lies) in the media. Yet, students dance & hold one another; make words mean what they mean & hold a mirror to the U’s gilded & empty shell.
Langston Hughes attended Columbia. He was denied a dorm room because he was black. From his poem, Kids Who Die: This is for the kids who die, Black and white, For kids will die certainly. The old and rich will live on awhile, As always, Eating blood and gold, Letting kids die
NOW: NYPD arrests at least a dozen NYU faculty members in the ‘Liberated Zone’ at Gould Plaza Police deployed the LRAD while protesters were praying

Emory professor Nicole McAfee, chair of the university's philosophy department, was among those arrested amid the Atlanta school's crackdown on student protesters. Democracy Now! spoke to Professor McAfee about the protests, which she says were "peaceful" until police arrived.
One thing that is always a thread in Black music innovation is resourcefulness. Limitations and lack of access force creative alternatives. Turntable as instrument, 1.2 seconds of sample time, no manuals, a lunchroom table, all of these pushed the limitations to break mundane.

How do you go back to school after they brought out snipers on you?
Lotta folks told us in grad school: “keep your head down and do your work until tenure.” They got tenure and them heads ain’t been up yet…

Thank you to the people who are providing alt text to images and videos being shared over the past few days. It’s hard to do on the ground and in the moment, so I appreciate it. Don’t want your labor and solidarity to be overlooked. 💚
I love teaching at CUNY because my students are majority Black & brown, first gen, they work, lots of parents, folks with immigration issues. That makes their protest EXTRA brave. It also means community should step up and support them. So make it a point to go up there …
I was seated next to someone (at an event) tonight who had been in the Weather Underground, did DECADES in prison for their activism. …
I asked: Many are comparing the current uprising to 1968, how do you think they compare?
Our conversation filled me with so much hope, so passing that on to all of you.
This person said: Oh, this movement is so much better, stronger, smarter, more diverse in ways that matter. This movement is also much better at collective care than we were.
Breaking: The Oxford College of @EmoryUniversity faculty overwhelmingly (>90%) passed a resolution... requesting the University Senate to consider a vote of no confidence in the President and senior members of the administration including the Provost.
Will you continue to request statements on “Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion” while arresting those who genuinely uphold these values?
(The amount of ppl on here who are addressing me like Im a student in response to one of my recent posts is really interesting. Maybe it speaks to good skin care. Maybe though it speaks to something else about my skin I cant quite put my finger on)
Maybe if university administrators stopped cutting the humanities and social sciences and read a fucking book, they would understand the dialectic between repression and resistance better and know that they’re sowing the seeds of their own demise with these shows of brute force.
going to say this as politely as possible: this is not the time for professors to gain their street cred. the prof to celebrity activist to prof pipeline (re)builds itself via the reification + exceptionalisation of their risks so let’s stop + remember how we got here—students.
