Scenes from Northwestern’s Pro-Palestinian encampment on April 25.
Lead in Schools = Environmental Racism. Barry School staff standing up for green sustainable community schools! #greenschools @CTULocal1 @ChiPubSchool @LN4S
As a @MedillSchool alumna, I'm deeply disappointed to see @NorthwesternU block reporters from covering a major news story unfolding on its campus. Democracy depends on a free & unafraid news media -- that can't happen if reporters are forced to report from behind fences.

There is a deep psychic and visceral connection that binds countless people from diverse backgrounds to the gruesome oppression of Palestinians and to the enabling indifference to it shown by so many North American and European observers. A must-read. thetriibe.com/2024/04/gaza-a…
No, the National Guard should not be sent to college campuses for peaceful anti-war protesters. The threat to our democracy is not just Trump, its right-wing authoritarians and those who refuse to stand up to them.

Kent State is well known, but more people should know about Jackson State. Why is it lesser known? Bc it was an HBCU

The media’s headlines should center the student’s demands not the “clash” with the police. How many times will these stories be written the exact same way?
Throughout U.S. history, students have protested to demand justice in the U.S. & worldwide. Invariably, they faced violence from police & vilification by corporate media & politicians. We share a few of countless stories of K–12 and college activism ⬇️ zinnedproject.org/collection/stu…
Happy #NationalPoetryMonth! Now's a great chance to check out Chicago poet Harold Green III, who dropped two poetry collections in 2022 that pay tribute to Black people in Chicago and abroad. Fulls story: thetriibe.com/2022/05/chicag…
Today's CPS board of ed. meeting will be at CVS High School, starting at 5pm. We urge parents, students, and community members who live in the area to attend. You are able to sign up for observation at the door even if slots are filled online.
It’s shameful that @NorthwesternU is choosing incarceration over education

Northwestern President Michael Schill changed the student code of conduct *THIS MORNING* to ban tents from campus as students set up their Palestine protest encampment. And he threatened students with suspension, expulsion or criminal charges. chicago.suntimes.com/israel-hamas-w…
As an NU/Medill alum, I stand with these brave students and faculty. @NorthwesternU must end partnerships that legitimize the genocide and occupation of Palestinians, and disclose/divest from war and apartheid ✊🏾

After their pro-Palestinian window was bashed in, Women & Children First Bookstore is planning to decorate the boarded-up window with a mural. buff.ly/3Wf60st
TONIGHT! The Community Commission for Public Safety & Accountability meeting will take place at 8000 S Michigan Ave. We will show up in force to raise our demands for the CCPSA to take urgent action to address CPD's practice of pretextual traffic stops and TACT teams! Join us!
Protesting a genocide is not antisemitism.

Scenes from Northwestern’s Pro-Palestinian encampment on April 25.
Lead in Schools = Environmental Racism. Barry School staff standing up for green sustainable community schools! #greenschools @CTULocal1 @ChiPubSchool @LN4S
As a @MedillSchool alumna, I'm deeply disappointed to see @NorthwesternU block reporters from covering a major news story unfolding on its campus. Democracy depends on a free & unafraid news media -- that can't happen if reporters are forced to report from behind fences.
Good morning! I'll be back at the NU encampment today, but if y'all will permit a bit of inside baseball – I've already been denied access to campus *again* under NU's blanket ban on outside media. For transparency, here's the full email exchange between me and NUVP Jon Yates.
There is a deep psychic and visceral connection that binds countless people from diverse backgrounds to the gruesome oppression of Palestinians and to the enabling indifference to it shown by so many North American and European observers. A must-read. thetriibe.com/2024/04/gaza-a…
No, the National Guard should not be sent to college campuses for peaceful anti-war protesters. The threat to our democracy is not just Trump, its right-wing authoritarians and those who refuse to stand up to them.
Speaker Johnson said he'll demand Biden send the National Guard to Columbia after protesters shouted him down during his speech at the college campus today. politi.co/4dcO0Vx
a plaque on Northwestern's deering lawn. the irony
Kent State is well known, but more people should know about Jackson State. Why is it lesser known? Bc it was an HBCU
thinking tonight about the kent state and jackson state massacres, the last time the national guard came to college campuses
The media’s headlines should center the student’s demands not the “clash” with the police. How many times will these stories be written the exact same way?
Throughout U.S. history, students have protested to demand justice in the U.S. & worldwide. Invariably, they faced violence from police & vilification by corporate media & politicians. We share a few of countless stories of K–12 and college activism ⬇️ zinnedproject.org/collection/stu…
Happy #NationalPoetryMonth! Now's a great chance to check out Chicago poet Harold Green III, who dropped two poetry collections in 2022 that pay tribute to Black people in Chicago and abroad. Fulls story: thetriibe.com/2022/05/chicag…
Today's CPS board of ed. meeting will be at CVS High School, starting at 5pm. We urge parents, students, and community members who live in the area to attend. You are able to sign up for observation at the door even if slots are filled online.
BREAKING: Dozens of Northwestern University students set up an encampment Thursday morning on campus. Around 8:30 a.m., police made a final announcement calling for tents to be taken down before arrests and citations would be issued. trib.al/KBKVhBG
Northwestern President Michael Schill changed the student code of conduct *THIS MORNING* to ban tents from campus as students set up their Palestine protest encampment. And he threatened students with suspension, expulsion or criminal charges. chicago.suntimes.com/israel-hamas-w…
As an NU/Medill alum, I stand with these brave students and faculty. @NorthwesternU must end partnerships that legitimize the genocide and occupation of Palestinians, and disclose/divest from war and apartheid ✊🏾
Police are shown getting physically violent with faculty. "You will not touch our students," a faculty member said.
After their pro-Palestinian window was bashed in, Women & Children First Bookstore is planning to decorate the boarded-up window with a mural. buff.ly/3Wf60st
TONIGHT! The Community Commission for Public Safety & Accountability meeting will take place at 8000 S Michigan Ave. We will show up in force to raise our demands for the CCPSA to take urgent action to address CPD's practice of pretextual traffic stops and TACT teams! Join us!
