many nypd officers tonight were excited to arrest columbia students. saying chants were catchy, clapping along with protestors, and itching to draw their guns on students. it was surreal to see.
The protests matter. The proof is the thousands of cops they're sending around the country to beat down college students because of it, with Biden's full endorsement.
1.7 million Palestinians are trapped in Rafah. Nowhere is safe. Israel fully intends to complete their genocidal campaign with the full consent of Western powers that be. Talk to me again about the 'lesser of two evils.'
I will do everything in my power to help the students who are penalized for protesting. I will put you in contact with other lawyers. I will write you a character letter. I will be a reference. Whatever you need. The good people are on your side. History is on your side
And here you can see officers entering an academic building with their weapons drawn, in response to college students protesting their tax & tuition dollars contributing to a plausible genocide
In the chronicles of history, it is here that heroes are born. Despite the treacherous winds of oppression, these warriors of truth stand firm, their resolve unyielding like the steel of a mighty fortress.
How can anyone have knowledge of this happening and not do everything in their power to stop it, let alone defend it. This country is like Nazi Germany except no one can pretend that they didn't know what was happening.
'Police being here doesn't mean we lost...it means we won in the most glorious way possible. This university offered us an empty deal. We did not concede. We did not fall for their bribes'
Columbia University encampment protester speaks on NYPD's invasion on students.
'NYPD is on a lift at Hamilton Hall. NYPD is breaking through windows at the Hall.' These pigs are gonna kill someone tonight. Godspeed to the students. cc-seas.columbia.edu/wkcr/
They didnโt rename the hall after a combatant, or an anti-Zionist, or an anti-Israeliโฆ. They named it after the five year old who died alone and terrified, because Israel killed her family and the paramedics trying to reach her. Powerful witness and beautiful resistance
