“Instead of protecting the rights of members of our community to free expression, debate, and protest, NYU elected to call on the NYPD to arrest students and faculty” — letter sent today by nearly 45 department chairs to @nyuniversity administration docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…
Freedom of speech 'under assault' at Palestine protests in US universities. @BazziNYU noted that high-ranking staff within US universities are increasingly apprehensive over a potential backlash from Congress. thenationalnews.com/news/us/2024/0…
FIRE caves in big time to the well-known Palestinian exception to free speech. What violence @TheFIREorg have student demonstrators perpetrated? There has been none.

Hi there — my fellowship at the New York Times ends in a month. I’ve spent the year editing, commissioning, researching, fact-checking and writing for @nytopinion. I’m looking for a full time journo job, although I’ll be content freelancing for willing editors.
Serious and sincere question. Why do articles like this only really mention antisemitism and the fears of Jewish students. Why aren't the fears of others documented? Why aren't those who provoke and exaggerate dangers like Shai Davidai mentioned? theguardian.com/us-news/2024/a…
I’m horrified by the events at NYU and Columbia. The naked, fluorescent hypocrisy of institutions that have spent the last four years bleating about anti-racism and police reform sending in cops in riot gear to round up students the moment it’s convenient is appalling. 1/
NYU’s administration tonight joined the shameful list of US universities that called the police to arrest their own students and faculty for protesting against an ongoing genocide
We at @DAWNmenaorg welcome sanctions against Israel’s Netzah Yehuda battalion, not least for their murder of an American 🇺🇸 citizen. We submitted a portfolio documenting their crimes to the State Dept in 2021, urging they be banned from receiving US military aid.

The killings students are protesting. Don’t lose sight of this or look away. The point is to normalize the killing of Palestinians of all ages

@jvplive Finally, it’s wrong bc it’s just BAD REPORTING which doesn’t reflect the TRUTH. Being against a genocide is NOT antisemitic (tho I’d argue the converse —the false claim all Jews are supportive of genocide —is). Defending (or even celebrating) Palestinian life is NOT antisemitic!
"Netanyahu played Trump like a fiddle. Now the stakes are infinitely higher—but Biden and Schumer, despite all their bluster about standing up to Netanyahu, are still dancing to Bibi’s tune when it comes to UNRWA." My latest, for the @newrepublic: newrepublic.com/article/180259…
“Without independent witnesses to war, atrocities can be enacted with impunity on all sides. Israel must open Gaza to journalists, and Israel’s allies must insist on it. Justice and democracy depend on it” — important essay by @jodieginsberg nytimes.com/2024/04/17/opi…
We need more of our own awards.
Nonsense he did it all himself but also what kind of a weak president is Biden for allowing a foreign government to openly undermine his re-election prospects? What other harm to Americans is Biden openly inviting foreign governments to do? This is the real question, not this…

I can admit when I am wrong. For a long time, I have had an unfairly dim view of philosophy professors. Many have seemed cold, distant, racist, and their work seems removed from the world. But I began reading Noëlle McAfee last night, and I was wrong to judge the whole field.
Never thought I’d see my academic colleagues in the United States arrested because of their opinions. Any one of us w/ a shred of consistency on free speech & authoritarianism would rightly deplore this behaviour in undemocratic regimes globally. A shameful day for my country.
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst
So many eminent universities have stooped so low. Standing w/ my NYU colleagues & all others defending our students’ & fellow faculty members’ basic right not to be arrested for peacefully expressing opinions. Unless a crime is committed, cops shouldn’t be making campus arrests.
“Instead of protecting the rights of members of our community to free expression, debate, and protest, NYU elected to call on the NYPD to arrest students and faculty” — letter sent today by nearly 45 department chairs to @nyuniversity administration docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Our team spent long hours reporting on and around Columbia’s campus on Thursday & Friday. I want to clear some stuff up. I didn’t see a single instance of violence or aggression on the lawn or at the student encampment. The student-led protest was peaceful and often very quiet…
Statement of the Barnard-Columbia chapters of the AAUP regarding the mass arrest of peacefully protesting students: “We have lost confidence in our president and administration, and we pledge to reclaim our university.”
We at @DAWNmenaorg welcome sanctions against Israel’s Netzah Yehuda battalion, not least for their murder of an American 🇺🇸 citizen. We submitted a portfolio documenting their crimes to the State Dept in 2021, urging they be banned from receiving US military aid.
🚨Scoop: U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is expected to announce within days sanctions against the Israel Defense Forces "Netzah Yehuda" battalion for human rights violations in the occupied West Bank. My story on @axios axios.com/2024/04/20/us-…
Most Americans do not want our government to write a blank check for Netanyahu’s war in Gaza. We support achieving a ceasefire that allows hostages to be freed, humanitarian aid to be delivered, and peace talks to begin. My statement with others who voted NO on HR 8034:
Ha! @BazziNYU is on it!
The killings students are protesting. Don’t lose sight of this or look away. The point is to normalize the killing of Palestinians of all ages
lsrael killed all these children tonight.
@jvplive Finally, it’s wrong bc it’s just BAD REPORTING which doesn’t reflect the TRUTH. Being against a genocide is NOT antisemitic (tho I’d argue the converse —the false claim all Jews are supportive of genocide —is). Defending (or even celebrating) Palestinian life is NOT antisemitic!
"Netanyahu played Trump like a fiddle. Now the stakes are infinitely higher—but Biden and Schumer, despite all their bluster about standing up to Netanyahu, are still dancing to Bibi’s tune when it comes to UNRWA." My latest, for the @newrepublic: newrepublic.com/article/180259…
I’ve also been accompanying students to these hearings. Our students while under this enormous pressure have been articulate and poised and breathtakingly Impressive. What’s happening to them makes me sick but how they’re standing up for themselves makes me love them even more.
Columbia and Barnard faculty have been working overtime since December to accompany students to increasingly draconian disciplinary hearings related to protests against Israel's war on Gaza. A colleague just sent this anecdote (shared with permission). This is where we are at
@BazziNYU @jodieginsberg I hope they are let in but I am not entirely convinced how much it will help Palestinians. They’ve done a tremendous job of sharing what is happening to them and it’s been repeatedly overlooked & under reported
