There will be no equity in education and educational leadership if folks cannot name and address racism

Heather Reisman has been kind of ahead of the curve on this one in Toronto

Jews around the world are not committing genocide. Israel is. Jesse and other zios continue to conflate the two to excuse the carnage inflicted by Zionist fascists in the pursuit of an ethno-supremacist nation state.

It might come as a surprise that Neo-Nazis and the far right, who have a long record of stoking antisemitism, are joining anti-Palestinian demonstrations, but for those familiar with the long-standing alliance between Zionists and antisemites, this is disturbingly predictable. 🧵

Universities make choices. To become violent. Today University of Toronto sent an email claiming that violence/discrimination has come from within the encampment (this is untrue), they want it removed and will take “further action” if that does not happen. They lie to justify future violence.

The University of Toronto president chose violence.

This encampment will stay.
If one is destroyed, another will arise.
As a UofT student, I am willing and ready to be arrested.
I have the legal counsel’s phone number written on my arm.

We’ll stay until UofT meets the students’ demands.

Meanwhile in Gaza - where continuing Israeli atrocities are triggering mass protests in Canada and worldwide - at least 35 people including children reported to be killed in fresh bombardment.

As Israel intensifies its ground attacks in Rafah more MPs are joining the call for an #ArmsEmbargoNow .

But it's not enough — ALL of Canada’s 338 MPs should be demanding an end to Canada’s arms trade with Israel.

Call on your MP to sign on now: armsembargonow.ca

'I support genocide, I support killing all you guys.'

City University of New York public safety officers attacked pro-Palestine students chanting for Palestine during a graduation at the College of Staten Island.

My son goes to a Toronto District School Board high school.

For Nakba Day, clubs in the school shared on their social media a post about the Nakba.

The school took down the posts.

The excuse? You can't post about your 'personal beliefs'.

Toronto District School Board, Nakba is not a personal belief. Nakba denialism is. 🧵

Morning University of Toronto

It's a good day to DISCLOSE and DIVEST.

Shameful move from University of Toronto

This is what the sponsors of Canada’s preeminent literary prize not only support but actively fund, by the way

Going to tweet while watching today's House of Commons hearing on antisemitism. There are two sets of speakers. This is the first hour's speakers:

This is not an airport, no need to announce your departure

I’m absolutely gobsmacked

Here’s the latest news piece on my case versus Toronto Metropolitan University. In short, Lincoln Alexander School of Law recruited me to attend on broken financial promises. They accepted me and bragged about it (in the national media) but then straight up lied to me about funding availability.

All the while

We are so close to our goal 🥹🫶🏻
