PRECISELY

Bingo.
To say white privilege is on the one hand real and consequential but on the other hand people with white privilege are mistaken to expect they will not be subject to police brutality is irredeemably confused, in a way that is exemplary of a certain type of faux left liberalism.

this is lovely & another beautiful account of the encampments, also this tweet's phrasing makes it sound like they have a zone full of nuts as a hostile protest against students with allergies and that's such a hilarious concept i temporarily couldn't think about anything else

Portland State University pauses donations and grants from Boeing, in response to calls from students, faculty, and local groups to cut ties. opb.org/article/2024/0…
US college admins are losing their minds. Email threatening to impose discipline on faculty specifies the approximate time faculty visited (under what auspices we aren't told) the encampment, meaning of course someone in the dean's office is recording and tracking such visits

the idea that I've provided several universities who are now beating, poisoning, and gassing their own students with explanations of "how I'd support DEI" makes me want to vomit
Which seems more likely to you all: UCLA protesters working with Hamas or UCLA counter-protesters working with the IDF?
Ottawa let's go
Inspiring energy at the Liberated Zone of Tabaret Lawn at the University of Ottawa. Definitely feels like we're in a movement moment where much that hasn't been possible soon will be. #StopArmingIsrael #cdnpoli ✊️🇵🇸
i really can't stress how useful it would be for people in political media to occasionally, from time to time, read a book
“Peaceful non violence” was the predicate of the Civil Rights Movement. Taking over a building and destroying property feels January 6th ish to me. 🤷🏽♂️
I had a negrian friend -- an italian - -who once said to me, you see all of those cops out there, with their guns and masks and gear? That's our own power, objectivized, and turned against us. This is wrong of course, but it is a consolation in moments like this.
incredible that, within mere hours, we witnessed brutal assault by the NYPD on students because of "outside agitators" while the LAPD stood by as they witnessed brutal assault on students by outside agitators
I don't know if we're witnessing the beginning of the end of the neoliberal university, but we are certainly seeing its true face: pabulum about care, belonging, diversity, equity, and inclusion mixed with coercive, violent practices of control and discipline.
We may be witnessing the beginning of the end of the neoliberal university, with all its bullying, pathetic lies, aggressive managerialism, and empty rhetoric. It’s some sight.
When I was working to organize a NTT union at Vanderbilt in 2016, I had a bizarre encounter with cops in Kirkland Hall. That experience solidified my critical interest in the university. I wrote a bit about Vanderbilt and, arguably, the US university. proteanmag.com/2024/04/29/dis…
I don’t say this lightly. I think we exist in a culture of fear that cultivates an unreasonable paranoia about worst case scenarios. But it does seem to me that we are careening to a point where we are going to be lucky to get through graduation season without a Kent State.
I’m on the scene at UT Austin. Protesters sittting with linked arms in the center of the South Lawn as DPS surrounds them. Multiple arrests so far
beautiful stuff. you can tell there are some really young ones out there doing this. ❤️
Incredible sights at UT Austin as the growing protest marches against retreating (and mace wielding) cops, to retake the south lawn they were forced from earlier. Protests will not stop until UT divests from all interests in Israel. Hartzell and Abbot can't intimidate us.
Haven’t been at an encampment, really, since Occupy Philly, and my first elder-millennial, existential verification that this is in fact an authentic young person movement is that no one asked to bum a smoke at/around the UChicago encampment
I’m in Arcata right now, so I should probably pay my respects to Comrade Water Cooler Jug
There are NEW encampments up at 8+ schools just this am, joining 100+ protests for peace across the world UChicago Georgia UC Irvine UC Riverside UW Madison Occidental UMass Amherst UBC
I'm really inspired by how hard these kids go with the de-arrests. They're crazy.
A “fuck you” from an American Jew is just a fuck you
Her work helped me think through key problems in Stepford Daughters. RIP Marina Vishmidt historicalmaterialism.org/marina-vishmid…

So proud of students at UChicago as they demand divestment, disclosure, repair, and justice for Palestine! Show up, UChicago community; you're needed on the quad, at "UChicago Popular University for Gaza." Rally at noon today!
Encampment in solidarity with Gaza at University of Chicago is going up now! Come down and support if you can 🔥🔥
