I reviewed this excellent book by Nina Yancy on the case of St George. Really great insights from a deep ethnography of the secession: global.oup.com/academic/produ…

stop using the term 'counterprotest(ers)' when they're actually 1) off duty/ex-police (eg Jan 6), 2) zionist/pro-genocide zealots, and/or 3) state sanctioned/condoned right wing terrorists.

meanwhile, penn admin claimed this morning that our encampment was threatening student safety… anyone in the area who wants to support our cause or learn more is welcome to come visit us and spend time here!!!

These commencements in 2020 and 2024 were cancelled because of elites ongoing push for normalization amidst mass death and unrest. It is not the fault of protestors for making this normalization clear and resisting it. Some of you social scientists are shitty analysts!!!

Cannot believe universities have been beating the crap out of students and faculty for the last two weeks and I’m only seeing certain faculty express outrage about a cancelled commencement. PLEASE be serious. From police brutality to PR moves these universities are coordinating.

Just visited my first encampment, at Penn since I happen to be in town. Gonna do a little thread of my impressions. First, as you can see, ordinary campus life carries on around it undisturbed.

Harvard's president just sent a university-wide email threatening suspensions for people who refuse to leave the encampment. He has still refused to even speak with protestors.

🚨BREAKING: HARVARD IS NOW THREATENING IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION AGAINST HUNDREDS OF STUDENTS INVOLVED IN THE Harvard Out of Occupied Palestine ENCAMPMENT.

IF UNDERTAKEN, THIS WILL BE ONE OF THE LARGEST MASS DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS IN HARVARD’S HISTORY.

The world is witnessing a genocide unfold in real time yet students are being investigated, suspended, expelled, beaten and/or arrested for protesting & pointing out how the genocide is being funded
