Mayor Adams cites “safety for children” then sics NYPD on students @ CUNY & Columbia. All while he cuts CUNY & public schools. What keeps students safer: $ for education OR $$$ for NYPD attacks on kids & free speech + accompanying overtime & misconduct suits? #CareNotCuts

The brutality we witnessed last night now is what happens when a mass movement rises up with a message that people in power want to silence and violently repress. Our statement from @audrey_sasson, on behalf of Jews For Racial & Economic Justice: jfrej.org/news/2024/05/j…
In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renaming it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for three weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.
Fascism.
I have covered tons of protests over the years and the cop response to Columbia University tonight was more than I’ve ever seen. It felt like they were using these student protestors as an excuse to play with their military toys.
Nominating Randy Maestro as NYC’s lawyer (needs city council approval) = knowingly wasting your time.

Slavery *still* exists in New York State ‼️ An exception to the U.S. Constitution’s 13th Amendment legalized modern-day slavery for incarcerated folks in New York. A clear violation of labor rights, racial justice and basic human dignity. #NoSlaveryinNY will change this 💪
“Over a 110-year period, almost without exception, whenever there was a Republican president who was elected, the murder and suicide rates would double, and whenever there was a Democratic president elected, the murder and suicide rates would halve.”

Something’s different about the Copenhagen City Hall parking lot. Can’t quite put my finger on what it is.

“Our leaders are teaching students that not only won't their peaceable assembly and petition of government result in a redress of their grievances, in fact it will land them in jail. This is an extremely dangerous lesson to teach, and will come back to haunt those teaching it.”
What my Senator @JabariBrisport said:
Last night was the darkest moment in the Adams administration. We will never forget what your NYPD did to our students.
unbelievable that I'm supposed to give Columbia/Barnard students an exam on political theories of freedom after this
Way to let us know you were on the wrong side of history then and are choosing to stay there again now
I was a student at @Columbia in 1968 when students occupied Hamilton Hall. My classmates, who were draft age and deeply concerned about Vietnam, had a real and personal stake in the protests. And even then, I felt the occupation of campus buildings was wrong—because it violated…
I wrote this for the @mtholyoke college newspaper in 1968. @mtholyokenews_ @aamhc @u_mspcoll @blkwomenradical @Black4Palestine @ChrisBurkeShay @BillFletcherJr @AshleyAreeSmith @tiffany_caban @UkraineSolidUS @JosephEntin @JooHyun_Kang @StrugIsEternal @JeanneTheoharis @vrophd
Read Barbara Smith’s firsthand account of her peaceful protest in Chicago during the 1968 Democratic convention. It's amazingly prescient today rutgersuniversitypress.org/the-truth-that… #Palestine #PeacefulProtests #Gaza
TO RESPOND TO STUDENTS WHO ARE DEMANDING THAT COLUMBIA STOP INVESTING IN WEAPONS MANUFACTURING COMPANIES. WHO DO THEY SERVE? WHO DO THEY PROTECT? CAPITALISTS AND COLONIZERS
NYPD sees itself as a conquering military (not protectors of free speech/protest as they often falsely claim). 100s of cops swarmed on City College w-military gear & brute force. Replacing a flag isn't about safety, it's propaganda. And why in the hell should cops be doing this?
#HAPPENINGNOW: An incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted @CityCollegeNY in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising Old Glory once again on their campus flagpole. 🇺🇸 @NYPDPC @NYPD1stDep @NYPDChiefOfDept @NYPDChiefPatrol @NYPDnews
Meet one of the brave students from Columbia elected by peers to negotiate with the school to divest from Israel. Mahmoud Khalil is a Palestinian refugee who is a grad student in public administration. Calm, smart, and measured -- and backed by millions around the world.👊☮️⤵️
In the spring of 1985 we padlocked the front doors of Hamilton Hall, renaming it Mandela Hall, and encamped on the steps for three weeks. Columbia divested from South Africa in the fall of 1985.
BREAKING: Dozens of protesters occupied Hamilton Hall in the early hours of Tuesday morning, moving metal gates to barricade the doors, blocking entrances with wooden tables and chairs, and zip-tying doors shut. columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/04/3…
this point is frankly asinine. the criticism of jan 6th was not that they were breaking and entering any building on earth!! it was congress!!! in the middle of certifying an election!!!! where are our critical thinking skills, people!
Every student breaking into this building on Columbia’s campus would be deeply critical of the Jan 6 rioters. You can’t have a society in which politics is conducted by laying siege to property whenever you want to make a point.
I was driving home, 3000 miles away, and suddenly I hear CUNY on the national news; they are pepper spraying and arresting our students; I hear student yells and screams; the reporter says "there are more cops here than protesters"; I want to throw up. How DARE they do this!!!
So they've turned a dozen blocks - a whole NYC neighborhood - into a fully locked down police zone to repress a small number of nonviolent students. Shame on Columbia. Shame on the NYPD. Shame on Eric Adams & Governor Hochul. Shame on CCNY.
not sure how liberals are gonna be able to scare us about fascism under a trump regime when this is literally happening against students & professors peacefully protesting in the most dem-majority state and city. sick to my stomach right now.
We are witnessing the weaponization of law enforcement in New York City under the watch of a Democratic Mayor, Governor, and President—all because these leaders rather defend a genocide over listening to the voices of the people. It’s wrong.
The NYPD's escalation against nonviolent student protesters -- at the direction of @NYCMayor -- will radicalize students and people around the country against state violence. This is what nonviolent action does: draw a moral contrast. Bless these students and keep them safe.
CNN's @miguelmarquez: "I've covered lots of this sort of stuff around the world, and i've never seen this many police moving into one area."
All the power and love to these courageous students.
Students at Columbia linking arms in front of the main gate to prevent NYPD from entering and arresting their comrades. Arrests now.
Proud of our members who are among the #Rabbis4Ceasefire participating in this action!
This morning, seven U.S.rabbis and Israeli activists were arrested by Israeli police at the Gaza border as part of a delegation of thirty rabbis and other peace activists with Rabbis for Ceasefire who were attemping to bring food supplies into Gaza through the Erez crossing.
