As we continue to witness mass mobilizations across the country to help stop the ongoing genocide in Gaza, it’s important for immigrant and non-citizen activist to know their rights while participating in protests.

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.

like, really understand this: New Yorkers are paying cops to stay at Columbia’s campus to stop students from protesting war. This is what it means to fund the police

I am absolutely not forgetting or forgiving that this week of violent repression of peaceful protest on college campuses began on Sunday with Joe Biden authorizing it all.

I keep saying it but I really really hope this moment is bringing everyone to police abolition. Police will always stand between us and the future we want, no matter what form of justice you fight for. Abolition resource guide here: micahherskind.com/abolition-reso…

my report from Columbia, where pro-Palestine students have been getting doxxed, harassed, intimidated, and even attacked for months:

Over the last 27 years, IDP has supported attorneys, advocacy and community members fighting against the harms of the entanglement of the US’s criminal legal and immigration systems. Thanks Silky Shah with Detention Watch Network (DWN) for sharing what our work means to them:

Just so everyone is clear, the Governor of Texas announces he ordered the protestors at the public university arrested because he is discriminating against their viewpoint, and the police confirm they acted at his instance.

I was having this exact convo w/another friend of ours from college last night. The scenes from UT are beyond disturbing. DPS in Texas is out of control from harassing, abusing, and arresting migrants at the border to doing the same to peacefully protesting college students at UT

I organized many, many demonstrations at UTexas while studying there 20 years ago.

We camped out on the South Mall several times.

We held huge marches in this very location (it was still a working road, not a plaza). Never that I can remember was DPS called in like this.
