Police have always been heavily overrepresented in right wing extremists organizations from the KKK to John Birch to Oath Keepers. When we hire more police, we're fueling these groups. wbez.org/stories/chicag…
🇵🇸Yesterday, our community SHOWED UP late at night to defend against a possible cop raid. We thank everyone who came out. People power is the ONLY reason why we're still here on day 8, having repelled zionist hate marches & stood strong against threats from admin and police. 1/3

This is why Israel is shutting down Al Jazeera. They don’t want us to see what they’re going to do in Rafah, the last refuge for Palestinians in Gaza.

And this is why Israel shut Al Jazeera down. All eyes on Rafah. This is absolutely terrifying.

All eyes on Rafah. They’re going to invade any minute now. We’ve reached the darkest point of the whole genocide. This is what they promised wouldn’t happen. It’s happening. I don’t have the words. The only “safe place” left in Gaza is going to be destroyed and invaded. Speak up.

All student protestors are brave, but the protestors I saw at the University of Mississippi today are on a whole other level given the climate here. Unbelievable courage from these young people.

Under the theories of civil and criminal liability embraced recently by right-wing judges on the 5th Circuit and prosecutors in the Georgia Copy City conspiracy case, Seinfeld and Ackman could be guilty of violent felonies and liable for enormous civil damages at a jury trial.

Thought this must be made up. Unfortunately, it's not: Louisiana is allowing white people living in the suburbs to *secede* from majority Black & progressive Baton Rouge, the capitol of Louisiana, in order to create their own new city.

to repeat: princeton university has arrested and evicted ONE THIRD of its graduating African American Studies majors. this is the most radical department at Princeton, and one of the only redeeming things about that place.

These arrests across campuses in the United States are happening *while* Biden is trying to prevent Netanyahu from being arrested for war crimes
Last Thursday, Ms. Michele Williams, a STOP leader since 2015, passed away. Ms. Williams led the organizing of a tenants association at Island Terrace, a 240-apartment building. She watched the gentrification of Bronzeville and knew that it was happening in Woodlawn too.
Many liberals and people of privledge are aghast at this moment because they've been ingnoring and dismissing Black people and movments. The Palestinian movement is prepared for this moment because it's been actively listenting to, working and coordinating with Black movements.
The NYPD threw a girl down a staircase, knocking her unconscious in front of cameras and with the full permission of the school she pays tuition to, and democrats are here smugly spreading conspiracy theories like trumpers. Don't pretend to care about democracy.

🚨BREAKING! Even after the massive coordinated effort to crack down on student encampments for Gaza by the NYPD last night, Fordham students have boldly risen up and started an encampment of their own! 🇵🇸DISCLOSE, DIVEST! WE WILL NOT STOP, WE WILL NOT REST!

Just spent some time with my mom at the University of Chicago Encampment. The scene is families, little kids with bubbles and sidewalk chalk. Students have created this space. There are supportive faculty looking out for them. The demand is peace. @UChicago
This edition of my newsletter is a loving message to student protesters. Drawing on my own experience with movements, the press, and encampments, I had some thoughts to share. I was grateful to share these words directly with students at UCSC yesterday. organizingmythoughts.org/a-loving-messa…
love to get threatened with suspension a couple hours before taking my torts exam. and also it doesn’t matter at all! Rafah is being invaded
As we enter another day of the Popular University for Gaza, the struggle for divestment and a liberated Palestine is as urgent as ever. We remain steadfast in our fight to divest, disclose, and repair. 🇵🇸 3/3
As we gathered, the IOF ordered evacuation in Rafah, escalating their genocide. This after a night where 22 Palestinians were murdered by UChicago-funded bombs. We affirmed that our eyes & hearts are with Rafah and that we must do more to end Israeli genocide & colonialism. 2/3
🇵🇸Yesterday, our community SHOWED UP late at night to defend against a possible cop raid. We thank everyone who came out. People power is the ONLY reason why we're still here on day 8, having repelled zionist hate marches & stood strong against threats from admin and police. 1/3

This is why Israel is shutting down Al Jazeera. They don’t want us to see what they’re going to do in Rafah, the last refuge for Palestinians in Gaza.
Rafah overnight: Israeli strikes targeted 11 homes. 21 bodies have been recovered, many others still trapped under the rubble.
The fact that Israel banned Al Jazeera hours before beginning its assault on Rafah is not a coincidence. After everything we’ve seen in the last 7 months, imagine what they’ll do when they think no one is watching.
And this is why Israel shut Al Jazeera down. All eyes on Rafah. This is absolutely terrifying.
Breaking: The Israeli army orders citizens to evacuate the eastern neighborhoods of Rafah in preparation for a military ground operation there.
All eyes on Rafah. They’re going to invade any minute now. We’ve reached the darkest point of the whole genocide. This is what they promised wouldn’t happen. It’s happening. I don’t have the words. The only “safe place” left in Gaza is going to be destroyed and invaded. Speak up.
The images coming out of Rafah are so devastating. But please, let's keep talking about how words are WMDs and how these uncooperative students have designated spokespeople. So many people should be so deeply ashamed.
sooo… @ChicagosMayor, what’s really going on?
This was earlier in the day when police and protesters were pushing back and forth on a barricade police put up. This was going on most of the day, though from what I saw, officers Callahan and Schmitz seemed to get the most aggressive with protesters on the line.

Clearly worth the cost to beef-up the CPD comms team. Wonder how much this thread cost in taxpayer dollars?
At approximately 11:00 a.m., demonstrators set up an encampment at a garden on the Art Institute of Chicago property in the 100 block of South Michigan Avenue. Demonstrators barricaded and locked the gates to fortify their position.
There was no reason for CPD to clear this encampment after the Mayor’s statements. This is a crucial moment to protect free speech and we need to be on the side of democracy. Sad day.
SAIC students started an encampment today in solidarity with Gaza on the anniversary of the #KentStateMassacre. Police came shortly after and swept the area
📍School of the Art Institute (SAIC), Chicago On the anniversary of the Kent State massacre where Ohio National Gaurd killed four students, Chicago police brought out their SWAT team to violently arrest students.

All student protestors are brave, but the protestors I saw at the University of Mississippi today are on a whole other level given the climate here. Unbelievable courage from these young people.
White male Ole Miss students are vast outnumbering the pro-Palestinian student protesters, shouting “hey, hey, hey, good bye!” One white male yelled at the protesters “your nose is huge!” @MSTODAYnews
