Petition for more people to listen to @IngaSaffron the first time “Philadelphia just can’t wait around to solve the problem of its bus infrastructure.”
As we recount the plagues, we will worry about cycles of revenge. When one people’s quest for safety leads to another people’s lack of freedom, neither of them is likely to be safe or free for very long.
At our Seder, we focus on Exodus 23:9: “You shall not wrong a stranger, nor oppress him, for you know the soul of a stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.” The lesson: We're required to help *all* people achieve liberation.
I’m in the @guardian today discussing why the legalization of sports gambling in the US has been a disaster. It’s fueled a public health crisis that’s only going to get worse while big corporations rake in cash. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Energy remains high as arrests continue, as students are standing strong chanting at officers. They are now naming each officer in attendance and calling out “You’re on the wrong side of history!” Several of the officers seem phased.

New York libraries are closed on Sundays so 1,000 cops can police students protesting their college.
When you punish students for their love & compassion you teach them how powerful compassion truly is. You admit to them that you govern on a premise that cannot withstand love. Love prevails. We’re witnessing the soul growth of a generation. They deserve our care & respect.💜

Yes, there have been individuals making vile statements on & around campus. This is wrong, evil & unacceptable. @ColumbiaSJP has publicly & clearly disavowed this. To let a minority of vile voices drown out the true message of the majority of student protesters is irresponsible.
@ColumbiaSJP Those of us with platforms need to remember everything we do and say or (don't say) has impact. Each of the escalations this week occurred because of single actions or statements made by people in power. Please remember that these are students. Protect them. Center their voices.
