It is not lost on me that many of the professors I have had and many of the professors I admire hold jobs in tenure lines, departments, and centers created in the 1960s and 1970s as the result of student movements.

The United Nations has called for “a clear, transparent and credible investigation” into the mass graves uncovered at two of Gaza’s major hospitals that had been raided by Israeli troops.

I'd love to speak to college organizers who have set up D/deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent contingents at campus encampments for a piece. My email is in my bio and my DM’s are open. I’m curious about how disabled students are showing up for these protests.

Summer, an organizer who did not share a last name, said there is a bargaining meeting happening now. “We’re the talk of the goddamn town,” Summer said. “Admin thinks the rain is going to clear us out,” Summer said. Protesters responded in unison: “No.”

Cal Poly Humboldt students have taken multiple buildings 🔥

Northwestern Divestment Coalition has set up a GoFundMe to fundraise for “food, supplies, legal aid” and other resources for protesters at the encampment.

As of Friday afternoon, the organization has raised nearly $8,000.

“The rain’s coming; there’s no denying it. But that’s not going to stop us is it?” an organizer said.

She said NU alumni have approached her offering to pay for “big-ticket items” and “whatever (demonstrators) need.”

She added that tarps and ponchos will be distributed.

So far, Columbia, Indiana University and Northwestern have all had admin bypass faculty committees to unilaterally change codes in order to suspend and ban protesters.

something to watch will be all the payouts in civil suits that police, feds, etc. in all these cities are going to have to pay up, in the months and years to come, at the expense of taxpayers

NLG Chicago is proud to have our legal observers at Northwestern University to support students taking action in solidarity with the people of Palestine.

🚨To all students mobilizing against the genocide in Gaza: WE HAVE YOUR BACK! 🚨

This resource was made in collaboration with Palestine Legal!

Tell me how much you abhor land in Indigenous hands & empowered Indigenous people.

Hey American anarchists/liberals/conservatives: we’re still Indigenous even when we aren’t in abject poverty, dying, drumming.

And nice use of energy during a genocide of Indigenous people 👍🏽

BREAKING: Dozens of ASU students are setting up camp in the lastest anti-war protest in Arizona, calling for university divestment from Israel and the reinstatement of MECHA de ASU among other demands. Here for azcentral

Nelson Mandela’s grandson talks about his grandfather’s fight for a free South Africa – and why he’s supporting Palestinians facing genocide by Israeli forces.

He’s joining the Freedom Flotilla ships as they attempt to break through the Israeli blockade to deliver aid to Gaza.

One of the ways protesters have stopped sprinklers from spraying themselves

They’re now chanting “water is life”

ASU has now turned on the sprinklers to deter pro-Palestine protesters. Protesters are putting bags and items on top of the sprinklers to stop them from spraying.

The IDS is still walking out today, but there is a historic protest on campus happening. Given that armed IUPD and state police officers forcefully arrested peaceful pro-Palestinian protestors setting up tents in Dunn Meadow, we are providing a thread of what happened so far:

The student uprisings for Palestine have gone global.

Students in Paris occupied the campus building at Elite Paris University, launching a major Palestine solidarity protest after a wave of antiwar protests have swept college campuses across the U.S.

This is outrageous. I hope that Northwestern Medill steps in to support our industry colleagues in overturning this ban.

As an alumna and current fellow, I am beyond disappointed.
