The student protests didn’t happen all of a sudden. They are the culmination of multiple efforts including the long-standing work of Palestinian groups, more recent movements led by undocumented students and @Mvmnt4BlkLives & the inclusion of diverse histories in curricula. 🧵
As Savera continues to monitor the shifting landscape of the far-right, we are keen to connect the dots and make connections across social movements. That's why we are so glad to have @TransLawCenter sign-on to our statement! Read the full declaration via the link in bio.

philosophy chair getting arrested, an econ prof getting her head smashed against concrete, a street medic being held down and tased, snipers setting up vantage points to shoot at ohio state students -all because of nationwide protests against a genocide- you SHOULD be radicalized

WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst
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,…

New: 28 unions—representing tens of thousands of workers—are demanding "the immediate reinstatement of all student and student workers disciplined for pro-Palestine protests and the end to the repression of protest on Columbia’s campus." "An injury to one is an injury to all."
Not to mention countless wilful acts of demolishing homes and shops — Nuh, Khargone, Khambhat all saw this. Elsewhere, places like Purola have seen local traders flee in the face of explicit and Nazi-styled economic boycott calls against Muslims. But facts simply don’t matter.
Schools across America have answered Columbia students’ call to occupy campuses as Harvard students are en route to MIT to join the encampment! 'Universities stakeholders should not be the state of Israel. It should be their students.' Columbia’s solidarity camp for Gaza has…
If you’re involved in any of these anti-genocide actions at universities, please make sure to save your emails, flyers and other papers so that in 50 years your university can proudly display them as part of their special collections
Universities that have set up Gaza solidarity camps so far ( that I know of): Barnard UC Berkeley Columbia Emerson U of Maryland U of Michigan MIT The New School NYU Rutgers Tufts Vanderbilt Washington U Yale Please add any that I missed
Colleagues in the media: If you are regurgitating extremist/alarmist rhetoric painting these students as violent and hostile without doing actual journalism and stepping foot on campus, you're helping to make the situation more dangerous.
both funny and infuriating to see elected officials and media outlets portray Columbia University students who support Palestine as violent mobs when in reality, we are a bunch of nerds sitting on the grass.

In his article End Times Antisemitism, Steven Gardiner reminds us that the Christian Right’s support of Israel is not a bulwark against antisemitism, but is only fulfilling the End Times prophecy needed to further their agenda. Learn more here: ow.ly/2rmn50RlyjU

Boston University students walked out of class today to protest the arrests of 100+ pro-Palestinian student demonstrators at Columbia University yesterday. Students at Harvard and MIT are also walking out today.
I was scheduled to give a talk at Columbia week after next. Just withdrew. Academics everywhere need to stand in solidarity with these courageous and principled students. Shame on Columbia. Shame on Shafik. Shame on all who remain silent.
