This is exactly what’s making any normal observer feel insane. A pro-Israel mob attacked these kids with slurs, fists, mace, and fireworks. Police watched for HOURS & did nothing. A day later, police instead bombard *them* with rubber bullets & flashbangs. (All in a “blue” state)
This piece by my @UCLA colleague, Prof. David Myers, accurately describes what I also witnessed on UCLA's campus on Sunday. To keep the peace, we both put ourselves between some pro-Palestinian protesters (who were mostly disciplined and non-confrontational) and a small…
A guy who’d been homeless completed a program that helped him find a job, and he told me he’d hung the certificate on his wall “Like I’m sure you did with your high school diploma.” And it got me thinking about how this kind of “I don’t care about my diploma” flex looks to others
Are we all just expected to pretend this isn’t weird?

This week, we head to Vienna for our first organizational social housing delegation. From participating in past delegations w/ @stanleypchang, we know that nothing compares to learning about social housing in person. We will tweet out lessons learned here starting Monday.
7 of 9 Seattle City Council members just did the thing where they said “no” to new housing (in this case built by nonprofits) but didn’t say yes to any other new housing ideas. Meanwhile the city gets more expensive and displacement continues.

So disappointing to see this council fail to push forward new ideas for #affordablehousing. We all know that we have an urgent need for housing - this is a complete failure to act. #dosomething

To wait until the Comprehensive Plan update is transmitted to Council at the end of this year is not taking our housing crisis seriously. The Comprehensive Plan sets a policy guideline – the way we implement it is to pass legislation.
I am honored and humbled to have Councilmember Morales’ endorsement. She is a true progressive leader and housing champion. I’m ready to join her in advancing policies that put people first. She had this to say:
Biden team pulling the emergency lever
INBOX: The Mayor celebrates the fight for $15 while his stooges on council try to slash wages and strip rights from gig delivery workers.
I asked Councilmember Morales if she called any of her colleagues "evil" or a "corporate shill" because I couldn't find it. Her answer was "I did not." The most I could find was this in @heidigroover's story. Willing to be corrected if there's more I missed.
Seattle reactionaries embody a blend of selfishness, arrogance, ignorance, laziness, and visceral hostility to anything which holds up a mirror and ever so briefly reveals that to be the case

This is so disgusting and racist @CNN. They're talking about my 63-year old mother who lost over 200 members of her family in Gaza. She visited the encampment for 20 minutes and ate some hummus.

On this May Day, I was happy to join a rally celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the Fight for a $15 minimum wage! Voters, organizers, workers, small business leaders, and policymakers have made their voices heard across the region: workers deserve a fair wage.
Seattle's local NPR station, @KUOW, announces layoffs today of nearly 10% of its staff positions. This includes axing the entire @KUOWradioactive Youth Media program. Not a great day for local journalism in this city. kuow.org/kuow-cost-redu…

“I just got my US citizenship and the first thing I’m doing is registering to vote and signing to get 137 for social housing on the ballot! It’s atrocious how we treat the unhoused in this country, especially in a city like Seattle with so much wealth disparity.”
The thing I can't get over is that none of these ghouls offer any factual dispute about what Israel is doing. Innocent people ARE dying, children ARE starving. They just think it's illegitimate for anyone to try to stop it.
People are upset because thousands of innocent civilians have been murdered and children are starving Nicholas

New: Pomona *faculty* vote 64% - 28% in favor of divestment from companies complicit in Israeli government human rights violations. Among the first university faculties to do so. Resolution asks school to begin with 11 firms including Barclays, Chevron, Elbit Systems, and more.
Columbia University hired private investigators to pursue pro-Palestine students. Vanderbilt University canceled a divestment vote, then expelled students after they protested. Pomona College sent police officers in riot gear to arrest 20 students. @prem_thakker reports,…
