“3 cops at every door!”

NYPD are now surrounding and blockading students inside private homes outside of Columbia campus.

Tonight in the United States of America, we are witnessing a militarized police force, funded by NYC taxpayers, arresting American students in the name of a foreign country that’s carrying out a genocide.

Friends, please, please amplify. The NYPD are now raiding City College. Reports are hundreds of cops. Please, I know that what happened at Columbia tonight is sickening--but this is Part II. And our @cuny students are largely working class students of color.

ccny campus magazine livestream is genuinely incredible, they’re reading out police badge numbers + names and getting people in the chat to search complaints filed against them, then reading the complaints back out loud to the cops 😭

STATEMENT FROM BESIEGED UCLA PALESTINE SOLIDARITY ENCAMPMENT

The only means of protection we had was each other. WE KEEP US SAFE.

The university’s hypocrisy
all too apparent. The university would rather see us dead than divest.

Call on UCLA to disclose, divest, end the silence

The city let Zionists attack ucla students for four straight hours without intervening. That’s the story here

All this so Israel can keep killing kids

BREAKING: NYPD officers including the strategic resource group are entering Columbia University’s campus. They are wearing riot gear. Campus is shut down. Multiple blocks have been barricaded off.

Pro-Israel counterprotestors started tearing down UCLA encampment barriers and screamed 'Second nakba!' referring to the mass displacement & dispossession of Palestinians during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. Per Los Angeles Times Safi Nazzal on the scene with another video:

Terror with impunity. Self-professed proudly Zionist mobs attacking the student encampment at UCLA tonight.

student reporters trying to hold back tears as they have to report on the fact that NYPD will have a permanent presence on campus until May 17th

So they've turned a dozen blocks - a whole NYC neighborhood - into a fully locked down police zone to repress a small number of nonviolent students.

Shame on Columbia. Shame on the NYPD. Shame on Eric Adams & Governor Hochul. Shame on CCNY.

It’s so crazy to know the response to young adults speaking out against mass murder and occupation of innocent people is military occupation

They have closed entire New York roads to traffic so that no one can come in to stop the world's largest police force from beating college kids up for protesting a genocide.

NYPD will be occupying Colombia campus until May 17

Doesn’t seem like a total accident that the NYPD raids on students at Columbia and CCNY are happening at the same time that Rafah is under brutal siege

NYPD advances on us and crowd

Columbia University right now

NOW: Protesters are rallying outside the ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampment’ at NYU as a handful of counter protesters stand across the street holding an Israeli flag

Protesters are planning to stop by 4 other encampments today — The New School, FIT, Columbia, and CCNY
