A 🧵: As @Columbia President succumbed to relentless Republican pressure at the House Education Committee hearing, sacrificing academic freedom to spurious but politically powerful claims of antisemitism, I gave a talk at @nyuniversity's Palestinian solidarity occupation.
BREAKING: UC BERKELEY STUDENTS HAVE OFFICIALLY ESTABLISHED AN ENCAMPMENT TO PROTEST THE INSTITUTION’S COMPLICITY IN GENOCIDE
students at the University of Alberta are setting up their encampment!
Details of Israeli police treatment of Professor Nadera Shalhoub Kevorkian, according to her lawyers: 1. Police officers strip searched her in a humiliating way. 2. Officers refused to provide drinking water when she asked. 3. Officers hand- & leg-cuffed her for a long time.

GAZA IS THE COMPASS OF OUR STRUGGLE. EVERYTHING WE DO IT FOR GAZA. DO NOT LOSE SIGHT OF WHAT’S IMPORTANT.
This editorial by the student newspaper at Columbia is fucking brilliant. It deftly illustrates how the craven agendas of federal legislators and university administrators are ruining higher ed. and universal values. It’s the students who save us. columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2024/0…
I am disgusted. We are all complicit - people of color, Black, Brown, formerly colonized, still colonized - and we continue to dance to the tune of our colonial-capitalist masters. We need to stop saying "freedom of speech" when it is met with carceral and state violence.

Columbia students, UofT students thank you for doing what so many of us have not had the courage to do: to disrupt business as usual as the powers that be legitimize this ongoing genocide agst Palestinians. As your profs we stand with you in full support and are immensely proud.
🚨UPDATE: Students have taken to the streets to prevent the corrections buses with the students from leaving. The student body is on the side of the Encampment and Palestine!!! COME TO 114 and AMSTERDAM to show solidarity and protect our own!!!
Listen to students from @occupyuoft and learn how they hold UofT accountable and how activism is done. I am grateful to them and to years of student activism on campus in divestment from S. African apartheid, fossil fuels, genocide. Thanks @ScholarStrike youtube.com/watch?v=UJt_AS…
BREAKING ‼️ As of 4 AM this morning, Columbia University students have occupied the center of campus, launching our Gaza Solidarity Encampment. We demand divestment and an end to Columbia’s complicity in genocide.
On April 2, 2024, UofT students occupied Simcoe Hall. During the occupation, students faced multiple intimidation tactics by campus safety, caught on video. It’s time for change. Cops off campus now!
Today the Toronto Police have once again attempted to criminalize and silence the Palestinian solidarity movement by arresting three peace activists who drew attention to Canadian venture fund Awz' complicity in Israel’s ongoing genocide. 1/3
On this one year anniversary of the war in Sudan, please support the local volunteers who are organizing and coordinating mutual aid efforts on the ground through emergency response rooms. You can make a one-time donation or monthly on here. Thank you!: sudansolidarity.com

This editorial by the student newspaper at Columbia is fucking brilliant. It deftly illustrates how the craven agendas of federal legislators and university administrators are ruining higher ed. and universal values. It’s the students who save us. columbiaspectator.com/opinion/2024/0…
University authorizes police intervention against own students demanding it divest from Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, including destruction of the education system by bombing schools, arresting professors & students and killing university presidents. Let that sink in.
Just got out of jail after Columbia called NYPD to mass arrest 100+ students. I have been suspended and evicted from housing by Barnard. This has only strengthened my commitment to the movement for Palestinian liberation and I promise to continue fighting for divestment.
The speed at which Columbia university is deploying the full power of the carceral state to attack our brave students is truly mind-boggling. This will be a full on police invasion of our universities.
🚨NYPD is preparing to sweep the encampment at Columbia University🚨
HUGE PROPS TO THESE STUDENTS!! 🔥❤️ Students ARE the University! They are its raison d'être, its beating heart, its moral compass. STAND WITH THEM! At @Columbia and across North America!
🚨UPDATE: Students have taken to the streets to prevent the corrections buses with the students from leaving. The student body is on the side of the Encampment and Palestine!!! COME TO 114 and AMSTERDAM to show solidarity and protect our own!!!
🚨UPDATE: Cornel West has joined the students occupying the West Lawn at Columbia University in support and solidarity with the students arrested in the Gaza Solidarity Encampment and the Palestinian struggle!!!
I am disgusted. We are all complicit - people of color, Black, Brown, formerly colonized, still colonized - and we continue to dance to the tune of our colonial-capitalist masters. We need to stop saying "freedom of speech" when it is met with carceral and state violence.
Minouche Shafik just announced her decision to request NYPD to clear out the pro-Palestine student encampment
Columbia students, UofT students thank you for doing what so many of us have not had the courage to do: to disrupt business as usual as the powers that be legitimize this ongoing genocide agst Palestinians. As your profs we stand with you in full support and are immensely proud.
wouldn’t it be epic to see other schools set up tent encampments on their quads in solidarity with Columbia students…what if…🤔
‼️ACTION ALERT ‼️ - 6 hours after the Gaza Solidarity Camp was established, Columbia University admin has mobilized NYPD against students & barricaded entrances. - We are asking students & faculty to attend today’s teach in! - Bring your friends! ❤️🔥 #cu4palestine
