People in Gaza - literal victims of an active genocide - are telling us how meaningful the protests are. This is all that really needs to be said about why they matter as far as I’m concerned.

Just got word that the last of my remaining family members in Gaza have made it to Egypt after more than 6 months sheltering in a church in the north. I am glad for their safety but it is also tragic: my last familial link to Palestine gone, an exile that began in 1948 complete
one of the greatest lessons i’ve learned in organizing is to not blame people for being surprised when they find out how bad the world is, even when it hits them late in life. not people who feign ignorance, but people who are truly surprised
France has joined the student revolution…🇵🇸
All of this posturing disappeared the moment she became Mayor. She has reversed every stance on policing.

1) the @GazaFFlotilla is not Turkish, it is a multinational coalition with participants from over 30 countries from around the world 2) it's not "unvetted" it's just not coordinating with the states actively committing genocide 3) fuck you and ever other merchant of death

so much of the infrastructure built, relationships forged, and tactics honed over the last years seem to be coming into play right now
omg activists also poured cement in the toilets of the Brooklyn Marriott hotel for hosting an Atlanta Police Department recruitment event...I would imagine Marriott will not be rushing to host another such event for the destroyers of the Weelaunee Forest

“When students vote overwhelmingly for divestment and administrators ignore them, the unmistakable conclusion is that the development of students’ critical thinking is an inconvenience to the institution, not its primary purpose.”

Biden puts this stuff out there to cosplay compassion for his base, then walks it back a week later, every time.
We polled more than 50 prosecutors in counties where demonstrations are occurring to ask if they'll charge pro-Palestine campus protesters. So far, only two said they don't want to prosecute people for peacefully protesting. theappeal.org/we-asked-prose…
Can’t believe more ppl aren’t talking about Cal Poly Humboldt. Despite federal & state authorities’ threats, students aren’t backing down. They occupied a 2nd building after renaming Seimens Hall “Intifada Hall” & redecorated the President’s office as part of the liberated zone:
a week ago they would have happily gone in to crack skulls. now they don’t want to get involved. the kids are winning

President Folt, rather than apologizing for betraying the trust of our students by subjecting them to violent assaults by the LAPD, lies to cover her unconscionable actions—I was personally present & tweeted live from the start of the protests. Here’s the easily provable truth 🧵
Absolutely profound thank you to @Ruwa4Georgia for being on the ground and, as seen in this photo, being physically between cops and students while things dispersed tonight. Incredible example of how electeds who are disturbed by Emory response can tangibly help keep folks safe.

🚨protesters in urbana-champaign attacked by police, using reinforced banner to defend themselves, linking arms and de-arresting. police are lucky that nobody is throwing anything at them.

@micahinATL @GKMC18 Two SNCC veterans came to columbia encampment and talked about this yesterday!
@micahinATL My dad visited the Columbia University student encampment. The 1968 student protests inspired him to start a radio program by 1969. By April 4,1986 he made the front page of the Columbia University and received bomb threats.
@micahinATL 🔥🔥🔥
I want to offer this as resistance escalates on college campuses. as a former activist & organizer, as someone who has been ringing the alarm since pre-2020 about the rise of fa*cism, I implore those of us who work with students to consider the following as we fight back. 1/n
Ok but I’m not going to spend the day debating the meaning and propriety of the facial expression of a woman I don’t know and who is on the same side as me lol
I don’t think that being a professor means that I should be especially safe from the police but I do think that when students and faculty are attacked by the institutions which totally depend on us, we absolutely are entitled to name that labor relation.
Y’all if I were to get attacked by the police on UAlbany’s campus, I would definitely say that I’m a professor and a few other cuss words. It’s a reasonable thing to say. Stop being weird. 🙃
@micahinATL And now pig resources are being diverted from the encampment to the building (a total waste of their resources bc action’s done but they know no other way to respond)
NYPD officers are starting to deploy in the dozens to protect the Atlanta police department recruitment event in Brooklyn!
My mom is a refugee during the U.S bombing of Cambodia and the Vietnam War. She told me that she didn't know there were mass anti-war student protests happening in the U.S. I think what feels different is that it's more accessible to recognize solidarity on a global level now.
i would love to hear from movement elders / people who have been in this a long time what feels different or similar about this moment of student uprising
@micahinATL It does feel like we keep repeating cycles of awakening to protest, rather than sustained protesting that keeps the government constantly in check, unfortunately. So, the spikes in protest get met with concentrated oppression because there has been more militarization of cops.
@micahinATL I participated in a sit-in at UCONN in 1986 protesting apartheid & calling for divestment from South Africa. It was all word of mouth, much smaller, about 50 of us taking shifts, though we announced it on the college radio station. Eventually the BOR agreed to divest.
@micahinATL i am 46, i have attended protests since age 16, and i too have never seen anything like this in my lifetime. only thing comparable is BLM or occupy wall st. and even those are now small compared to everyone standing up for no more genocide. THE KIDS ARE NOT ALRIGHT. THEY ARE MAD!
@micahinATL Not quite that (not comparisons) and not quite elders lol although previous generations of encampments and occupations youtube.com/live/qwDxl_GmA…
COP CITY RICO update: Judge Kimberly Adams is allowing lawyers to waive their clients presence at the next hearing on May 7. 1/3
@micahinATL I was chatting w/ a friend about the differences between this moment and summer of 2020. One thing that stands out is the ability to stay on message and not get wrapped up in attempts by the opposition to derail, misconstrue or confuse the message and intent of the protests
@micahinATL I love this question. Have so many, many thoughts and would love to hear others.
@micahinATL Today’s folks have the necessary anti-cop mindset baked in on day one, that feels new. It also seems like the college students have like an ingrained sense of military tactics, squaring off with the police. I agree it’s probably in part to do w/ years of active shooter training.
@micahinATL The organizers are more trained at facilitation, consensus building, de escalation, and the existence of technology enables much more coordination and reporting in real time about abuse.
After 1000 articles in the national press over a decade on how woke kids seeking trigger warnings or protesting comedy shows are attacks on a broad “culture” of free speech, note how magically free speech is no longer a broad cultural value but a narrow legal question.
Protest that follow university time/place/manner rules should obviously be allowed, independently of the protest viewpoint. That's easy. The tricky question raised by the current college protests, I take it, is what administrations should do when protests are in violation of…
