I am a Jew. This week, a trustee of Dartmouth 🌲, the college at which I've taught 14 years, Chris Sununu, declared a protest there '100% antisemitic.' A protest in which Jewish students, faculty, & staff took part. Sununu's statement isn't just wrong--it's antisemitic. 1/

There’s been a framing that all these protesters at Columbia were rich and entitled. But that’s why interviews of them are important ⁦Columbia Daily Spectator⁩ ⁦New York Magazine⁩

Thank you for this as a CUNY faculty member who was not arrested but was outside the gates and witnessed the horrific police response there. In the CUNY context, it's also important to note that the college is always talking about community engagement and has an open campus.

The Columbia Daily Spectator staff wrote and photographed an entire cover package for New York Magazine, I am so ridiculously proud of them!!! columbiaspectator.com/news/2024/05/0…

Much like Trump’s 2020 tirades against BLM protestors or election integrity defenders, when Senator Cotton calls encampments “little Gazas” or the head of ADL calls students “Iranian proxies” it functions as stochastic terrorism, naming an enemy & mobilizing a vigilante base

Here we go

Jeff Sharlet Dartmouth 🌲 Those cops were brutal to me. I promise I did absolutely nothing wrong. I was standing with a line of women faculty in the their 60s to 80s trying to protect our students. I have now been banned from the campus where I have taught for 34 years.

The UAW will never support the mass arrest or intimidation of those exercising their right to protest, strike, or speak out against injustice.

If you say WTF, some troll will tell you professors have no special rights. Sure don't! I don't care what this guy does for a living. Has zero to do w/ the police brutality, except inasmuch as this college called in cops to beat its own faculty.

I call this Islamophobic conspiracy theory the 'Protocols of the Elders of Anti-Zion'. I was JVP's national campus organizer from 2015-2018. Today I'm a researcher tracking antisemitic movements. Does Jonathan Greenblatt still think I'm huddling in some dark corner with Khamenei?

No, Mr. Netanyahu. It is not antisemitic or pro-Hamas to point out that in a little over six months your extremist government has killed 34,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 77,000 – 70% of whom are women and children.

You will not distract us from this immoral war.

From evictions to a court system that's already rendered 150,000 people stateless to border militarization to climate catastrophe. Do read this investigative piece by journalist Ankur Singh (not on X) for In These Times. I provided some additional reporting from Assam's Dhubri.

Think it will be bad if Trump wins? Spoiler alert: the playbook—Project 2025—that would be implemented if he gets elected is already here, and in play and in process. Great piece for In These Times by Gillian Kane w/edits by Kathryn Joyce. inthesetimes.com/article/projec…

We have reached the 'anti-Israel protesters are paid' by Jews portion of the program.

Greg’s own Lt. Governor, Dan Patrick, received $3 million dollars from a PAC associated with Nick Fuentes, who has expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler & has called for the execution of non-Christians, including “perfidious Jews.” (Patrick refused to return the money)

This is right. The even darker thing is that if you tell people, over and over, that to be outraged about Israel is to hate the Jews, they might start to believe you.

“Much as Palestine has been used as a laboratory for Israeli weapons and border technology sold across the world, Assam has become the primary testing ground for Hindu nationalist policies expanding across India.” inthesetimes.com/article/ethnon…

The incredible power of a child beginning her story with a simple “this is what happened” in the face of so much denial.
