ccny campus magazine livestream is genuinely incredible, they’re reading out police badge numbers + names and getting people in the chat to search complaints filed against them, then reading the complaints back out loud to the cops 😭
ALL OUT FOR JAIL SUPPORT FOR OUR AMAZING COMRADES. 1 POLICE PLAZA!!
Saying “Jewish students” as opposed to “student protestors” when there are literally more Jewish students at the encampment than protesting outside of it, is so infuriating.

They don't have a radio station, but the City College magazine is live streaming right now on IG. They were just told they're going to be arrested if they don't leave but there are so few on the ground documenting. Please don't forget them. instagram.com/ccnycampus
Protesters beating back riot cops, moments ago. Hands off our students!
Legal witnesses just confirmed that protesters heads have been smashed against the sidewalk, their heads beaten with batons.
You’ve got to admit it’s fucking weird how much time these people have to write letters jfc what is your job To cops no less

Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @CUNY students are largely working class students of color.
I have gotten a few questions about how to donate to student journalism outlets without supporting Columbia itself. @ColumbiaSpec is an independent nonprofit with zero financial ties to the university, if you want to kick them some money. specpublishing.com/donate-1
thinking of robbing a bank in NYC tonight
fuck columbia. fuck the nypd. period. you say defund, i say go way further.

NYPD arrested someone who was walking his dog near CCNY as they raided CCNY’s Gaza Solidarity Encampment, and now he’s searching for his dog. Looking for a beige Pomeranian named Neptune last seen around 140th & Convent. DM if you find
NYPD emerging from City College with arrested students.
A bunch of student reporters are being effectively detained in Pulitzer Hall at Columbia. Police are not allowing them to leave. You read that correctly.
protestors are chanting “Stop Cop City” outside of Columbia’s gates right now
Many students getting draconian charges include “hate crimes” against COPS! We warned this would happen after Biden used J6 NOT to focus on WHITE terror, but to expand “Domestic Violent Extremist” definition to include ppl protesting POLICE (after George Floyd Uprising, no less)

feeling my brain sizzle thinking about how many overtime hours these cops are collectively cashing in to intimidate and beat on a bunch of kids and their teachers
The pro-Israel side is trying to make it hard for people in the encampment to sleep. And I think it will work.
UCLA, 9:42 PM: Pro-Israel group counter-protests the pro-Palestinian encampment.
It’s important to remember that a small group of people can really fuck things up. If the city is going to send hella resources to Westwood for UCLA students or to downtown for USC students, an action elsewhere in the city could really stretch LAPD thin. 🫡🫡🫡
STATEMENT FROM UCLA SOLIDARITY ENCAMPMENT: To the admin, We will not leave. We will remain here until our demands are met. To the students & other community, Join us. We ask you to mobilize & show up in solidarity with our allies across the country & world GET TO UCLA NOW!🧵
Would love to see a student demonstration in behalf of peace. Not pro-Israel, not pro-Palestinian. Just good ol’ peace. Any of those?
This is VCU endorsing camping on campus when it involves waiting overnight to watch a basketball game. Heaven forbid these sports fan decided they wanted the university to divest in a genocide.
#Shakaville is in full effect at the @SiegelCenter today! #LetsGoVCU
truly devastating how fragile some of yalls staunchly held principles are. the first amendment warriors. the democracy preachers. the freedom cherishers. every moral fiber eaten alive, first by thousands of dead children in gaza then by thousands of protesting kids in the us
Prior to raid, a group of freshmen involved in neither Palestine nor Israel protests told me they’d personally experienced no safety issues on campus, couching that in the caveat that they’re neither Palestinian nor Israeli, but could see why each had safety concerns.
NYPD raided CCNY and Columbia somewhat simultaneously, then after Columbia shifted most of those cops to CCNY. Conservative estimate of NYPD just at Columbia: 500. I spoke with some students before and after the raid about their thoughts on safety:
This excessive police response to Americans protesting genocide reflects how much they fear the power of our voice.
Another trip to the desert and back in my 1984 Toyota. So lucky I found this truck 💚💚💚
I have covered tons of protests over the years and the cop response to Columbia University tonight was more than I’ve ever seen. It felt like they were using these student protestors as an excuse to play with their military toys.
As all eyes are on the massive NYPD crackdown at Columbia tonight, the situation at UCLA is escalating. Protestors say they will not leave despite the administration’s demands and threats. They are calling more students to join noting “No universities left in Gaza.”

Will never be able to listen to Duke Ellington again without thinking that a 20-year-old student journalist is going to break in and give me an update on the Columbia encampment
Saying “Jewish students” as opposed to “student protestors” when there are literally more Jewish students at the encampment than protesting outside of it, is so infuriating.
My number one priority is protecting the safety of all New Yorkers and students — both Jewish students and students protesting. Every student deserves to feel safe walking on their campus.
Look if they say something nice about this students next week I’m sure it’ll be nice, but the best thing they can do to honor journalism is to let those kids get out there and report freely on the news on their own campus right now, tonight.
