As of today, I've lived in Birmingham for 5 years. Can't think of a better way to have marked the occasion - and May Day! - than to have stood in solidarity with Palestine today alongside students, staff, and fellow Brummies in my adopted city.

Left the house just now and shocking to see that outside agitators appear to have brought their tactical grade insurgency equipment to our block
All these kids want is for their schools to not invest in mass death, and the response to that has been pretty thoroughly psychotic.
This is literally called a New York bike lock.

Anyone who thinks this militarized response to the demonstrators will end their anger over Israel’s genocide is nuts. Shame on Columbia, its donors, its pathetic President, & the NYPD. And btw, this will have consequences in November.

On May Day, over 1,000 workers are blockading the UK Trade Department in London and BAE Systems’ arms factories in Scotland, Wales and Lancashire 🇵🇸 🚩- here’s @lslothuus breaking it down!
We're entering a global "which side are you on?" moment. Never forget the people in power - from those who wouldn't vote for a ceasefire to those who armed and apologized for a genocide - who took the same side as the fascists featured here.

"The protests have also succeeded in one other important way, if a depressing one. They have shown all of us that brutality wielded outwards can and will be turned inwards in a split second." This is a prerequisite for understanding our moment. Read it.

In its sheer vacuity, this is actually a fascinating if sad symbol of our times. Students in future history classes will of course be bored by this, but also puzzled at how it was all possible while fascism loomed and a genocide took place.

Agreed. I think the replies also illustrate the need for many more car free streets and concrete-barrier protection for people trying to get around without a car. Strategies of education, enforcement, and painted cycle lanes will only prolong the #UKCarCulture status quo.

What I'll remember about Humza Yousaf's leadership is how he showed that integrity and basic humanity were possible on the most important issue of the moment: Palestine. And what a contrast that was to the conduct of so many others in positions of power.

Nothing about this is remotely normal. Even assuming there are legitimate grounds for arrest, its not normal for every arrest in every story/clip/photo to involve brutalising people. This is what punishing someone by hurting them looks like.
Professor pinned on the ground being arrested at @UWMadison, asking police to leave students alone
This is embarrassing. All the tropes of a TV crime drama, with cops strategizing to save lives, but the mission here was to terrorize, brutalize, and arrest a group of students in tents.
Let’s take an inside look at how your @NYPDnews officers safely & professionally restored order at @Columbia & @CityCollegeNY yesterday, after school officials requested our assistance in dispersing unlawful encampments on their campuses & persons barricaded inside their…
The incredible braindeadness of invoking the Vietnam War/anti-apartheid protests (which were famously met with extreme NYPD violence) to defend the use of NYPD to clear an anti-apartheid protest on the anniversary of their 1968 raid is just mind boggling.
We out here—university teachers—refusing the authoritarian police state created at Columbia & someone in faculty housing is attempting to drown out our demonstration by playing music, inc. the national anthem. The colonial poetry of it all. #yourmusicsucks #copsoffcampus 🍉
Left the house just now and shocking to see that outside agitators appear to have brought their tactical grade insurgency equipment to our block
"violence that took place" How quickly universities default to the passive voice when it is pro-Israel counter protestors committing violent acts openly, screaming "the second nakba", and being utterly disgusting.
Due to the distress caused by the violence that took place on Royce Quad late last night and early this morning, all classes are cancelled today. Please avoid the Royce Quad area. bso.ucla.edu
Christian Zionists love the “antisemitism awareness act” except the one lone part that describes the 2 millennia of actual Christian antisemitism is the discursive intervention I’ve been trying for years and failing to make. 🧑🍳 l 💋
Antisemitism is wrong, but I will not be voting for the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023 (H.R. 6090) today that could convict Christians of antisemitism for believing the Gospel that says Jesus was handed over to Herod to be crucified by the Jews. Read the bill text and…
In short, exactly what I bring to school.
So basically my anti-theft bike lock.
Deputy Commissioner Tarik Sheppard shows the chains used to secure Hamilton Hall at Columbia University. "This is not what students bring to school. This is what professionals bring to campuses and universities."
Here is the first 24 minutes of the attack at UCLA. Make no mistake: the attacks were solely initiated by the pro-Israel side.
HANDS OFF OUR STUDENTS. I’m sitting in with my students & colleagues. This is my view from where I sit on the ground on Library Mall. If you are in Madison please come now and demand cops back down.
What more is there to say? The line was supposed to be “vote Dem or get fascism” but under Biden we have military cops gassing kids all across the US. The majority of the country is appalled by genocide in Gaza and yet this government is pretending that view is criminal.
All these kids want is for their schools to not invest in mass death, and the response to that has been pretty thoroughly psychotic.
I was gonna vote for Biden in November -- for labor and also obviously to keep Trump out of office -- but after tonight... Man, I don't know.
The scene at UCLA last night. My alma mater. And these were not "counter-protestors." This was a violent pro-Israeli mob that attacked peaceful students & set off fireworks & pepper spray with deadly intent. If circumstances were reversed there would be international outrage.
I know people have become cynical about these things, but I am confident that our elite academic institutions will not come back from these events the same way. They will be dramatically transformed - eventually for the better. This is the last gasp of a dying order.
And here you can see officers entering an academic building with their weapons drawn, in response to college students protesting their tax & tuition dollars contributing to a plausible genocide
