“Anti-Vietnam War protestors at Columbia wanted PEACE, they didn’t support the Vietcong! They didn’t support violent resistance!”
Anti-Vietnam War protestors at Columbia:
both funny and infuriating to see elected officials and media outlets portray Columbia University students who support Palestine as violent mobs when in reality, we are a bunch of nerds sitting on the grass.
As a Ferguson activist, I know what it’s like to have agitators infiltrate our movement, manipulate the press, & fuel the suppression of dissent by public officials & law enforcement.
We must reject these tactics to silence anti-war activists demanding divestment from genocide.
@ColumbiaSJP Those of us with platforms need to remember everything we do and say or (don't say) has impact. Each of the escalations this week occurred because of single actions or statements made by people in power. Please remember that these are students. Protect them. Center their voices.
My usual TV beat is food, but I'm also a current @Columbia student, and I'm so sad & so frustrated with the way student protests on our campus are being reported. This will be imperfect, but I can't watch things that are so contrary to what I've actually seen and stay silent. 🧵
Actually, this video is good! It proves, from the Zionists' own documentation, that Palestine solidarity encampments on campuses *are* peaceful. This person wants confrontation, but that's not what the students want. They're there for divestment and a free Palestine.
If you benefit from position of the oppressor you don’t get to set the parameters of liberation. The oppressed set what liberation means and that’s what we follow. Anything else is irrelevant noise

I’ll add here that Muslims pray five times a day. And Muslims pray in a group when they’re together. So if Muslims are outside, they’re gonna pray in a group for as long as they’re outside, up to five times a day.

During Jummah (Friday prayer) this afternoon, Columbia University students formed a human shield with blankets to provide privacy to those students participating in prayer after a video showing students praying on the lawn began circulating on social media

Growing up in post-9/11 America, my spirit has often been crushed by constant Islamophobia.
Now we are in an era where there is community that will love and protect me as I perform my most sacred rituals as we fight against genocide. This is the world I want to be a part of.

I have never seen anything like this happen before at Columbia. There is no fear left among students. Organizers were arrested en masse & when I got out of jail, I was told students occupied another lawn on their own. Hundreds are willing to risk arrest. I am so filled with hope.
🚨UPDATE: Hear the chants of over 1000 of Columbia University/Barnard students, faculty, alumni, and affiliates as they call for disclosure and divestment of CU funding of Israel and its genocide of Palestinians. They are also calling for amnesty for all students and faculty…
Google fired 28 workers for organizing against its contract with Israel.
Columbia is sending in full riot gear cops to harass & arrests students demanding an end to genocide. 3 students
suspended.
Admins across the US are silencing commencement speakers, USC is the latest
Y'all are seeing the level of harassment and infiltration because the protests are making a difference. They don't do that if they weren't getting desperate.
