Mass graves uncovered in Gaza show victims’ hands were tied before they were killed and buried. Among the dead are doctors, zip tied and still wearing their scrubs.

Further evidence of Israeli forces extrajudicially executing Palestinian civilians.

'Jewish safety' has been made to stand in for the institutional security of the university, the nation-state, and the empire, and that is a dangerous conflation for us all.

If you’re involved in any of these anti-genocide actions at universities, please make sure to save your emails, flyers and other papers so that in 50 years your university can proudly display them as part of their special collections

.New York University called the cops on students and faculty tonight. People were brutalized, tear gassed, and arrested

The protest had been peaceful ALL DAY

And now the uni president sends us a message that 'high among the university's aim was to avoid any escalation or violence'

What student protesters are proving is that the logic of the university is ultimately that of the corporation, which is to say that of capitalism, which is to say that of imperialism. In their embrace of state violence, these vaunted institutions further prove the point.

The moving acts of solidarity on the part of students & faculty striking for Palestine only echo in a small way the exponentially greater acts of solidarity exhibited by the Palestinian people—who have shown us a politics of care for one another amidst unimaginable stakes.

On its homepage, the The New York Times website currently has four (4) prominently-displayed pieces about American college protests and zero (0) pieces about the nearly 300 bodies (some with their hands and feet bound) found in a mass grave at a hospital in southern Gaza.

The power of state anti-antisemitism is that it fuses the language of liberal anti-racism with the reactionary politics of white grievance, enabling state repression of the multiracial left to take place under the guise of minority protection.

The innovation of the 'new' McCarthyism's suppression of pro-Palestine speech is that it no longer wields claims of disloyalty to the US nation-state, but of discrimination against a protected Jewish minority. Liberal antiracism is the enabling discourse of this state repression.

'The one movement that can never be co-opted or diverted is a movement that demands immediate withdrawal from Vietnam...because the people America is fighting in Vietnam are the Vietnamese people themselves.'

As my employer - Columbia University University - calls armed riot police into campus to smash a peaceful protest against a genocide, we must all speak out. My former students have been arrested. I'm proud of you. History will be too. Remember what I said in our first class last year:

I have never seen anything like this happen before at Columbia. There is no fear left among students. Organizers were arrested en masse & when I got out of jail, I was told students occupied another lawn on their own. Hundreds are willing to risk arrest. I am so filled with hope.

As arrests are ongoing, the students show that they will NOT BE INTIMIDATED

“Over 30 thousand dead! Columbia you’re painted red!!”

When the US 'pulls its allies closer' in alliance against China, it empowers the most reactionary elements from those societies. This has been the pattern throughout the Cold War—from Park to Marcos to Chiang—and its legacy is alive and well today.
