Super interesting to note the contrast between the way Brown University and Columbia University have handled these protests. Brown agreed to a governance vote about divestment, the encampment there dissolved.

why don’t they ever say that Palestinian students and protestors are also valued members of the university community

Delighted to share my first commissioned piece for @itsnicethat—an amazing survey on creative labor by @JulienPosture that looks at why artistic production has so often been framed in opposition to "real" work (share your rates, solidarity forever, etc.!) itsnicethat.com/features/arts-…
I spent two hours at the NYU encampment late last night. It was something I’ve never seen before at NYU: a real community, driven by shared ideals and filled with conversations about ideas. We need more of it, not less.

Organize a union, is what I'm saying. Join the academic union wave. That's how we'll take back control from the petty tyrants who have seized our universities.
TACTICS IDEAS THREAD: For students who want to grow the Gaza Solidarity mvmt on their campus and are looking for creative outreach methods or programming ideas. Here’s a thread of some tactics –– some inspired by the already existing camps. Please reply w/ your suggestions!
As breaking news on campus begins to slow down this weekend, I’m starting to truly reflect on the events that unfolded on the morning of April 25 as a student reporter at Emerson College.
Some outstanding letters of protest here from NYU (@nyuniversity) faculty to the President and Provost, but the below from @ProfStevenHahn is pure 🔥 🔥 🔥 : facultyforpalestine.education/statements/fac…
"To whatever extent college kids are able to break out of the comfortable trap of “campus activism” and connect their protests to the wider world, I salute them. As should we all." – @hamiltonnolan, "College Is an Education in Bullshit" hamiltonnolan.com/p/college-is-a…
The historian in me had to say this publicly:
Statement of the ACT-UAW 7902 Executive Board on the Events of Monday, April 22, at NYU If you're a Local 7902 (including @CfuUaw) member who supports the statement and would like to add your name as a signatory, please do so at tinyurl.com/7902EBstatement

@KateAronoff @markkrotov I would bet NYC taxpayers will be on the hook for hundreds of millions in NYPD settlements after the abuses happening now.
@KateAronoff Respectfully, this is not the take we need right now!!!
In a year Shafik will be speaking to Davos from a cushy World Bank post about global citizenship or whatever. Students protesters will be navigating hellish legal battles, maybe still nursing injuries and trying to figure out how to pay off tens of thousands of dollars in debt
I am outraged by the level of police presence called upon nonviolent student protestors on Columbia and CCNY’s campuses. As an educator who has first hand experience with the over-policing of our schools, this is personal to me.
According to Columbia by-laws, police are not supposed to be allowed on campus without the consent of the faculty. President Shafik does *not* have our approval for this raid; she has not even asked our approval. This promises to be a horrifying dereliction of faculty governance
Tonight in the United States of America, we are witnessing a militarized police force, funded by NYC taxpayers, arresting American students in the name of a foreign country that’s carrying out a genocide.
Columbia’s student radio station is doing incredible reporting.
If you're following Columbia, turn on WKCR right now-- it seems like the cops are cordoning off even public streets and there are no legal observers allowed in, but NYPD counterterrorism units are massing. Listening to the police state prepare to pounce in real time, ghastly.
Grateful to work for a higher ed institution that *hasn't* lost its damn mind...
As many, including myself, take some time to absorb the events of tonight, there is one thing I am certain of...EVERY decision of Columbia's President Shafik, from the beginning of the protest was extraordinaly bad, escalated everything, & negatively reverbated across the…
Columbia University President Minouche Shafik's letter to the NYPD
One of the very first translations of a Chinese book into a European language used Hokkien pronunciations throughout, via the Philippines: The Beng Sim Po Cam (Bêng sim pó kàm) 明心寳鑒 (Fan Liben, 1393), translated by Juan Cobo (1592) 📚📖
There’s also Philippine Hokkien which they call it “Lán-nâng-ōe” 咱人話 (our people’s language). The history of 咱人話 which goes back to the 1500s is very interesting. It’s actually one of the earliest sources for written Hokkien using Chinese & Latin script
Letter to Columbia President Minouche Shafik from UCLA (& former Columbia U) Professor Robin Kelly “In forty years, I have never seen such brazen cruelty toward students and faculty.” bostonreview.net/articles/lette…
Joe Biden campaign officially dies tonight. With a naked and brutal display of fascism in the nation's largest city, mobilized against unarmed students on their own campus. This is what he said he would prevent Trump from doing. This is why we said there was no difference.
All these grown ass men with full body armor, weapons and military vehicles against kids with signs and a real cause. Every last one of those NYPD entering campus is an embarrassment to the city and the country. Weak, stupid, followers who deserve neither a salary nor any…
I’ve rescinded my application to a summer course at Columbia this summer. Everything happening there right now is a tragedy planned and executed by Minouche Shafik and the NYPD.
Super interesting to note the contrast between the way Brown University and Columbia University have handled these protests. Brown agreed to a governance vote about divestment, the encampment there dissolved.
The most bizarre thing about what Columbia is doing is that the encampment was so small, especially when compared to 1968. If Baroness Shafik had just let them sit on the lawn and basically ignored them, she would've won. But the neoliberal university can accept ...
This one doesn't need an explanation. It's the nepo baby himself: Theo Baker. In his Atlantic hit piece against me, he acted as if he left my CS section due to my views, when in fact, that occurred months before I started my activism. linkedin.com/in/theo-baker/
Next up: Hannah Levin. This undergrad in CS tried to get me fired from my TA-ship in a huge CS class, simply for protesting her pro-genocide tent OUTSIDE of the classroom. Naturally, Stanford ignored her (And in fact, I got an offer to TA that class the following quarter).
Next is his girlfriend, Michelle Karlsberg. She was very triggered by my "Ask Me About Jihad" sign. I also recall her saying she was not a white girl because she's hispanic... Anyway, she was active with the pro-genocide and Islamophobic tent. linkedin.com/in/michelle-ka…
