Watch the Palestine supporters get blamed for this
I am voting YES on @Soc4Pal because the systematic murder of 30000 Palestinians is wrong. Obviously.

happy to share I’m joining faculty at NYU Abu Dhabi as assistant prof of sociology. Grateful to my friends and mentors at ucla that helped me along the way.
I have been very fortunate to have read an early version of this book. It is the best book on colonialism I’ve ever read. A much needed intervention about a concept and process which has been stretched into oblivion. It’s so good.

Gonna be a great read
I introduced my new book Hyperconnectivity and Its Discontents @politybooks by sketching my argument about transformations of selves, interactions, & culture. I continue that thread here by sketching the argument about transformations of economics & politics.

Iraq studies people: @michaelpbrill and I will be discussing our paper “Saddam Truthers” at @MESA_1966 at 830am on Saturday (yikes). We discuss officials who to this day claim Saddam Hussein had ties to 911, Oklahoma City bombings, or first world trade attacks.
I’ve read it and it has all the conceptual clarity and theoretical insight we’ve come to expect from Rogers Brubaker.

Please spread widely- Statement from the members of the #UCLA History department in response to the attack on the encampment on 30 April 2024
Anatomy of a Zionist Lie: The Beaten-Unconscious Jewish Girl That Wasn't Many accounts tried to justify last night's Jewish mob attack on UCLA protesters by citing a Jewish girl who was beaten unconscious. But did that really happen? Let's do a deep dive & see what we discover!
@AHAhistorians Shouldn't you guys be issuing statements about the historians who are having the shit kicked out of them, and being arrested at campuses across the country, rather than trying to sell merch?
The academic building in which my office sits has turned into a cop staging area. When one of my colleagues used his key to the building to enter they promptly kicked him out. It’s clear who owns the university: not the students, not the faculty, but the admin and their pigs.
Rubber bullets? Have you lost your mind @UCLA? You are using rubber bullets against unarmed protestors who are *students* of your uni demanding you divest from genocide. You are attacking them to facilitate a quieter genocide. Fantastically gross legacy. #Gaza #StudentIntifada
Really @uca? Is this how you @UCLAchancellor keep our students safe? First letting a mob violently attack & the next day allowing police to shoot them? You have failed all of us. #NoConfidence in you Police shoot at UCLA protesters as encampment cleared newsweek.com/ucla-campus-pr…
These encampments are wild flowers for Palestine and justice. They will grow and come back no matter what. #Gaza #Palestine
Some of us have been out of school for a while and may have forgotten our American history. Protesting injustice and expressing our opinions is part of our American tradition and what makes this, in fact, a free country. That’s what the Constitution is all about.
HAPPENING NOW: A pro-Palestinian protest is underway at KU. They tell KCTV5 their demands are as follows: 1. Financial divestment 2. Financial transparency 3. Demilitarization 4. Amnesty for protestors We’ve got more from the protests coming up at 4 and 5 @KCTV5
"CSC security officers hired by the university retreated into Kaplan Hall shortly after, refusing to allow entrance into the building to anyone, including Daily Bruin reporters." I hope the @UCLA students who were injured are in touch with lawyers today. dailybruin.com/2024/05/01/pro…
Let's be clear: to the extent that university campuses today are unsafe, the fault lies squarely with pro-Israel counter-protesters, the cops, and the university administrators who enable them.
Eric Adams recognizes the state of Palestine
“It’s despicable that schools would allow another country’s flag to fly in our country,” Mayor Adams says - a shocking message from someone who raises other country’s flags over Bowling Green to honor their people ALL THE TIME.
I feel like I'm losing my mind a little: people understand that "occupying buildings on campus" is, like, one of the most common forms of studen protest for decades and not some devious new ploy devised by professional anarchist plotters, right?

Do I agree with every word in every statement, every choice and every tactic? Maybe not. But I am moved by their maturity, persistence and grace. These aren’t kids. These are leaders. (10/10)
What happened at UCLA last night is despicable. Pro-Israel vigilantes threw fireworks into the student encampment, tore down barricades, and beat students. Police did not intervene. Why brutalize students when self-deputized vigilantes will do it for you?
