All this so Israel can keep killing kids

A May Day poster from Palestine, 1982.

In celebration of International Workers' Day and the generations of struggle for peace and justice, here's a quick thread of #MayDay posters from around the world.

Let's start with a 1973 May Day poster from Czech artist František Kopenec.

One difference between this building at Columbia and the US Capitol is that the Capitol happens to be the seat of Congress, the national legislature of the United States, which was, at the time, certifying the results of an election those who stormed the Capitol wanted to void.

“But it ended in two days.” They literally killed someone.

if you think Columbia U was bad tonight imagine Rafah

For clarity....Columbia University, the institution that houses the Knight First Amendment Institute and the Pulitzers is barring journalists from being on the ground to cover whats happening on campus? Got it.

i think it’s cool that if you don’t respect israel enough the police will show up at your door like this until you do

When the siege tower comes out that's how you know a peaceful learning environment is being restored

Rafah is being decimated, there is nowhere else left to go. Israel is now bombing more than 1.7 million civilians trapped in Rafah, Gaza's last place of refuge. A massacre is happening in Rafah right now and the world is silent.

This from CCNY president is nothing short of slander: “there's a reckless disregard…for the welfare of this community, including the underage children that are sometimes present in the encampment.”

I obviously knew the liberal embrace of militant anti-racism in 2020was phony but I have to admit I’m still taken aback by how easily so many hysterical anti-Trump types are ignoring this.

Obviously, it's not the BBC or CNN doing this. It's the Norway Broadcasting Corporation.

I can’t believe this is what Henry Darger’s home/studio looks like in the present day yeesh

Not sure precisely when it happened but there are way, way too many people in important sectors of power who think that Gazan society is run in exactly the same way ISIS ruled Mosul.

this event was described by the employer as follows: 'we made the decision to peaceably remove [the protesters]. Unfortunately, they physically resisted. In the process of making a total of 100 arrests, three police officers received significant injuries.'

Shocking footage shows several officers at Washington University St. Louis beating a professor, slamming him, and dragging his limp body.
SIUE history professor Steve Tamari is reportedly hospitalized with broken ribs and a broken hand.
One doctor told him he's lucky to be alive.

Refreshing honesty: “I opposed protests against apartheid South Africa, too!”
