Awful position as a news editor to be covering a shooting at your kid's own school. Uggh.

Police arrest nearly three dozen protesters and tear down a pro-Palestinian encampment on @uwmadison’s Library Mall.

Tents @uwmadison were removed this morning but more than a dozen are now in place. Small number of visible law enforcement present. Schedule of events posted (rally, meeting, music).

Take a look at this photo from Drake White-Bergey📸, who captured UW-Madison professor Samer Alatout being detained at this morning's pro-Palestine protest on Library Mall:

The tents are back up on Library Mall - with groups of police watching on the sidelines.

'There's a base hit to right field for my boy, Tyler Black... It's awesome. I think we're gonna start drinking heavily.'

Milwaukee Brewers rookie Tyler Black's dad, Rod, calls his son's hit during an interview.

Nice use of passive voice here.

.@uwmadison Professor Samer Alatout is back at the protest. He said he was detained and cited and police inflicted the gash on his head. He said police are “singling out” people of color.

“I saw the police pointing at me and saying ‘we want him,’” Alatout told me.

Imagine the scene in this bar car as the train pulls away from the Milwaukee station on the morning of a Badgers football game.

Maybe this is the best thing I've ever done.

Anyone working in media has stories about former college students who participated in protests looking to have quotes and photos removed from archives years later.

Some items from the May 27, 1984, issue of Isthmus:

It was also built to pull protests away from Bascom Hill and the classrooms there. Vietnam protests routinely interrupted classes.
Also: In my years attending UW and working on State Street Mall, I never saw anyone speaking from that little pulpit other than Simon Sparrow.

Thrilled to have Liam Beran working with Isthmus to follow the protests unfolding on the UW–Madison campus. He spoke with several people on Library Mall Monday: isthmus.com/news/news/pro-…
