Protesters in Chicago blocked the traffic on Wacker Drive, demanding an immediate end to the genocide in Gaza.

The racist harassment of Muslim students by members of Columbia’s faculty is unprofessional, unethical, and morally abhorrent. But as with so many other incidents of adult and administrative malfeasance, the solidarity these students show their classmates has been heroic.

Making students homeless and without healthcare the same day, destroying their belongings, banning them from campus, having them arrested for trespassing—this institution has far too much power to do harm to the students for whose safety it’s responsible.

The student occupation at Columbia continues going strong more than 42hrs later despite violent repression from the school and police 🇵🇸🫡

Do you think your child has a right to hug you if they want to? Do you think the government should be able to ban a child from hugging their parent? That's what's happening now with kids across the U.S. whose parents are presumed innocent and awaiting trial.

No public bathrooms or elevators for people with disabilities, just more delays

This is how all journalists should report on public health and safety issues. Instead of transcribing police press releases, go to court & see up close how “justice” really works. You’ll learn a lot, report with more nuance, & added bonus, get tons of scoops.
