This Black student singing gospel (which emerged from the souls and spirits of slaves) while the Black police (who likely heard the same song in church but are doing work descended from slave patrols) is truly something to behold.
@dereckapurnell Yessssss we live in the empire, that’s all we know. Some people just got the book, some are a few pages in but either way as long as the Mf not only realized there was a book, but then started looking and reading it. We’re moving in the right direction.
the world is so much more dynamic offline and in community struggle. if it’s not your role to help politicize people who are genuinely surprised, then don’t. It’s not my role to fight with people who are antagonistic, but we need people in that role. that is movement building
Idk what you’re supposed to do with that, and i’m not just talking about non-Black people. Most of my most fascinating experiences have been with black elders who know the police are bad and are just being politicized around abolition. Do they know about police? Of course

“There are no universities left in Gaza. At Howard, we have $90M contract w/Dept. of Defense. As students across the DMV, we do not support campuses, which are supposed to be spaces of learning, to have relationships w/these genocidal entities” Howard U. students at GWU Protest
It was a Zionist protester who said kill the Jews, mocking Palestinians standing against Israeli genocide. There is literal video of it. Unless you can provide evidence of this claim, retract it, apologize, and regardless: divest from Israeli apartheid and genocide

I hope Emory professors who are shocked that cops would brutally arrest them realize that this is what happens to poor, dark, disabled people in Atlanta on a regular basis. Voting to oust their president can only protect Emory for so long. They should condemn and stop Cop City
Getting arrested today trying to deliver aid to Gaza was the only way I could figure out to mark pesach this year with integrity. Next year in liberation!

this is so weird because Biden has an awful political track record, he’s was a raging racist and segregationist. he co-authored the crime bill..lol like what is the body of work that merits an honorary degree from THE Morehouse College??

Watch the video below of a professor being thrown to the ground after asking "what are you doing" –– then read how Emory Police describe the arrests that you just watched with your own eyes.

GWU Solidarity Update: A couple hundred students from Georgetown march to join in support of George Washington U. Encampment. Told that American U. Students will be joining soon. This is what DMV student solidarity looks like. #FreePalestine #StopArmingIsrael
Morehouse Alum, Jared Loggins, asks about the elephant in the room. “Dear Gaza, what does it mean to ask a besieged people to endure when we are the ones perversely, collectively, with the guns in our hands? Refusal is not the least we can do, it’s the only ethical position.”
“Dear Gaza…my time on the land your people have stewarded for centuries forever changed me as a person…your defiance, your sumud, your faith, their denial, your Blackness, your queerness, your beauty and our shared struggle” @CharleneCac
“We’re leaving a record. When people look back, they will know we refused to support a genocidal regime. We want people to sit and think for a moment. What do you want to say to the people of Palestine right now?” @delaneypv15
“We’re here as a family to bring in the spirit of Black Palestinian solidarity. We’re here, not so much to teach, but to sit together, to grieve together.” @nylefort kicking us off with a beautiful reflection on the history of our shared struggle
If you're in Atlanta and not coming to the Dear Gaza Event idk what to tell you…..food, childcare and speakers that will connect the global struggle to liberate Palestine to Atlanta and the end of fascism. See y'all soon 💕
@travybismyname @dereckapurnell Even if this is true, and they all hate us, what does that mean in your mind? How/what do you think we should change in terms of our perceptions and feelings about the situation in Gaza?
And I’m proud of that today. Explains the song choice 🤣🤣
"The suffering of Black and Palestinian people is not the same. But our liberation is inseparable," writes Nyle Fort. buff.ly/43Or4I7
As the tide turns globally, I see the effort to pin the blame solely on Netanyahu. The strategy is to resurrect Israel's image in the process of toppling him. But genocide is not a one-man show; the whole system is culpable. Zionism must be abolished. There is no going back.
@dereckapurnell there's always people that use the 'singling out' complaint. ignore them
@LHSummers Are you asking for all countries to be given a pass on human rights violations?

KC TENANTS AND JACKSON COUNTY VOTERS SHUT DOWN THE STADIUM SALES TAX. The largest transfer of public funds to private enterprises in our region’s history, $2 billion over 40 years. The people took on the billionaires. The people won. Nothing is inevitable if we organize.

Eric Adams not only revived police units that were disbanded in 2020 for their disproportionate abuse against Black and brown New Yorkers, he revived stop and frisk. Since he became mayor, 97% of all stops and searches have been on Black and Latino New Yorkers.
