On today's @thisdaypod, a story that has been on our list for a while but of course we had to do in this moment: the 1968 Columbia student protests. What happens when campus politics and real-world politics converge? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thi…
🔥from Robin D.G. Kelley in this Open Letter to Columbia University President Shafik: "You are keeping no one safe, except for your donors, trustees, and the university’s endowment." bostonreview.net/articles/lette…
NEW: The letter @shahanmufti and I organized—signed by 65+ professors of journalism and communication from across the country—has been published in full at @lithub.Read why we are demanding an independent investigation of the NYT's "Screams Without Words" lithub.com/a-call-from-th…
BREAKING: ACT UP NY member, Butch Molly, has chained themselves to a bench and announced a hunger strike in support of NYU's divestment campaign to end the genocide in Gaza. Come show your support at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in Brooklyn.
🚨BREAKING: Columbia University students form a human chain to protect the protestors who have occupied Hamilton Hall - which has now been renamed HIND’S HALL. 🇵🇸
I can’t stop listening to WKCR. Some of the most riveting live radio I’ve ever heard. cc-seas.columbia.edu/wkcr/#
columbia's student radio station is covering this rn and its good: cc-seas.columbia.edu/wkcr/#
Students at Columbia University have occupied Hamilton hall. Today the university president explicitly said to students the school would not be divesting and threatened to suspend students protesting. The last time this building was taken over by student protesters was in 1968
At least one the banned faculty is an adjunct professor who was video recording interactions between the police & protestors. 😞

As the well worn Stuart Hall quote goes, “Politics does not reflect majorities, it constructs them.” A lot of these students probably don't have a long engagement with or passion for Palestinian liberation, but the ones who do are constructing a new majority before our eyes.

This is unacceptable.

Columbia states they’ve begun (starting at 2pm) suspending students who remained at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment after ending negotiations, wherein the university refused to divest from genocide.
Terminated writing program profs careers represented by one pencil for every section they taught. Each those pencils represents tens of thousands of students taught only for these faculty to be thrown away in a restructure that will shortchange our students. #SaveRWritingProgram
Rutgers students have just started their pro-Palestinian encampment. Power to the students! Free Palestine 🇵🇸🧿✊🏽
Proud of Rutgers students and faculty 🇵🇸

There's something about the dismissive "look at these rich kids in their Ivy bubble protesting injustice" take that rings hollow. In part because the demographics of elite institutions have changed a TON since the middle-age-twitter-journo-types went there.
🚨BREAKING: Columbia University students form a human chain to protect the protestors who have occupied Hamilton Hall - which has now been renamed HIND’S HALL. 🇵🇸
columbia's student radio station is covering this rn and its good: cc-seas.columbia.edu/wkcr/#
Students at Columbia University have occupied Hamilton hall. Today the university president explicitly said to students the school would not be divesting and threatened to suspend students protesting. The last time this building was taken over by student protesters was in 1968
As the well worn Stuart Hall quote goes, “Politics does not reflect majorities, it constructs them.” A lot of these students probably don't have a long engagement with or passion for Palestinian liberation, but the ones who do are constructing a new majority before our eyes.
BREAKING: 90.99% of @BarnardCollege students have voted to divest from israel.
I don’t know how you can be a teacher and see students being just terrorized at 100 campuses—gassed, beaten, arrested, expelled, choked, blinded—and not want to use your body or any means necessary to protect them. This is a rotten system. This is not education.
NYU admin is threatening suspensions for students at their Gaza Solidarity Encampment if they don’t leave by 12pm today, a threat which came out shortly after Columbia threatened similar to students with a 2pm deadline today.
