At university encampments, we’ve seen Teach-Ins, art builds, cultural performances, & interfaith services. Rather than engage with peaceful demonstrations in good faith, admin has chosen to evict, suspend, & call in police to violently arrest students. nytimes.com/2024/04/27/us/…

In Chula Vista, the unchecked spread of surveillance cameras starkly shows the push to a surveillance state that monitors families and our neighbors. Accountability and transparency from the government are non-negotiable.

Police across the United States made at least 275 arrests over the weekend as campus protests against Israel's assault on Gaza continue to spread. Police arrested protesters at Northeastern University, Washington University in St. Louis, Arizona State and Indiana State.

Despite myths perpetuated by politicians, immigrants have been key to staving off recession, filling critical job gaps & driving economic growth. The truth is politicians cling to these false narratives for their racist and xenophobic political agendas.

BREAKING: Palestinian and allied students filed a civil rights complaint today against Columbia University over NYPD arrests of 100+ students peacefully protesting Israel’s genocide in Gaza, and 6+ months of discrimination on campus leading up to this moment. palestinelegal.org/news/2024/4/25…

If the cops are on campus all student loan debt should be transferred to the cops

“So admin, what are you going to do?” the Spectator editorial board asks in criticism of Shafik’s handling of campus activism following her April 17 congressional hearing. “Suspend more students until your entire student population falls into line?” l8r.it/HBc2

Cops don't keep us safe. Policing is not about safety; it is about maintaining and protecting the ruling class, their capital, their interests—police are given tremendous discretion by those in power to actively utilize and commit violence along axes of power in order to do so.

Israel has vastly escalated its use of facial recognition tech since October as a means of tracking, restricting, & incarcerating Palestinians. Sheera Frenkel of NYT describes how their use of AI is used to commit mass surveillance of the Palestinian people. marketplace.org/shows/marketpl…

Solidarity with the students at UT Austin and across the country.

Free Palestine.

John Oliver on Gaza protests: “Protest is meant to be disruptive…34,000 people have been killed, most of them women & children…the US continues to supply Israel funding & arms for all of this, even as Gaza sinks into famine. If that’s not worth protesting, I’m not sure what is”

We stand in solidarity with the courageous students across the country.

Cool, now do all of them. #AbolishPrisons

UndocuBlack immigrants and their stories are excluded from mainstream immigration narratives, rendering them invisible in debates and policies that shape their lives. This isn't just an oversight; it's an erasure caused by anti-Blackness that is dangerous.

Iowa's new law, mimicking Abbott's oppressive measures, will let local officials arrest and deport immigrants. Gov. Reynolds' actions not only defy federal authority but also promote racial profiling and further dehumanize immigrants.
