An email from a UCLA professor

“Clashes” didn’t break out. Violence didn’t “erupt.” Pro Israel protesters at UCLA violently assaulted peaceful anti-war protesters while cops watched.

Absolutely insane footage of the NYPD entering Columbia University. It’s endless.

BREAKING: City University of New York rank and file faculty members have just voted UNANIMOUSLY to support the five demands of the CUNY students and to protect the students, including holding a picket tomorrow !

Bravo to these brave, brave students 👏🏻

In 1986 we occupied the Dean’s office & built a shantytown in Harvard University Yard to force the university to divest from companies profiting from apartheid S. Africa. They threatened us with expulsion. We said, “F*uck you, we won’t do what you tell us.” Students! Thanks for keeping…

I’ve been to a lot of protests over my lifetime. This was one of the most excessive uses of force I’ve ever seen. Six police departments responded to students chanting because they want the genocide in Gaza to stop and the university to divest from those supporting the war.

Lot of 'serious' people keep trying to say these encampments are frivolous and don't matter.

I dunno, feels like this matters.

Imagine being the college dean who escorts snipers to the roof to take aim at your own students.

rich people becoming class conscious and taking the fall for their low income peers is good actually! not to mention they will be the ones who will make the most impact by withholding donations

Y’all, there’s a website called “Alternative Airlines” where you can specifically search for flights with airlines that do NOT use #Boeing aircraft.
