BREAKING: Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson rips into the right-wing judges by issuing a powerful dissent after the court refuses to hear an appeal from a Black man who was sentenced to 162 years as a teen because his lawyer messed up. RT IF YOU STAND WITH KBJ!
Hi, my name is Parker and I'm a mass shooting survivor. I use my horrific experience to advocate for better gun safety laws, and am going to meet with officials at the Capitol next week. Will you join my mission by retweeting and following? I can’t do my work without your help.
They want us living in terror. Scared to organize. Scared to be in community with each other. Scared to teach our children who they are. Scared to speak out. Scared to love ourselves. We all we got. We are stronger together👊🏾#BlackLivesMatter #StopAsianHate #stopAntisemitism
Let’s keep it going. 😎 Dear @CollegeBoard — Florida banned new Afr Amer Studies course outright claiming it “lacks educational value.” You worked over a decade creating course. You had scholars hail curriculum for being “rigorously vetted.” How are you not #AllOrNothingAP? 🤨🤔
Hey @CollegeBoard How do you plan to respond to Florida banning your African-American Studies course? In response, you should pull all your courses from the state. DeSantis doesn’t get to pick & choose. This is a perfect opportunity to take a stand for teaching honest history.
The GOP needs to drop their hypocritical lawsuits now and allow @POTUS to cancel student debt for 43 million Americans. RT if you agree!

These protests also differ from 1968 in that those protests were about solidarity with community members. The current pro-Palestinian protests have emboldened anti-Semitism and acts of hate against Jewish Americans. They are a danger to Jewish people in the community. 11/
In fact, one of their demands is amnesty from suspension or expulsion over participation in protests. Why are they so intent on staying at a school that is highly unlikely (and is possibly unable) to comply with their demands about divestment? 9/
These protests feel wrong because the students are disrupting everyone’s education in the short term but show no willingness to disrupt their own educations in the long term. They’ll to fuck up finals week for their principles, but not quit Columbia for their principles. 10/
Moreover, the issue of divestment is a thorny one. What these students are trying to say is that they don’t want their tuition dollars to fund Israel’s war. But they are not threatening to withdraw from the school and seek out a school with an endowment more aligned with their…
But let’s face it, we can’t ignore the patina of anti-Semitism around these events. Anti-Semitic acts of hate have been rising in the area around Columbia University since October. The student actions now are likely to fuel that. 7/ nytimes.com/2023/12/20/nyr…
The students protesting today want to show solidarity with civilians in Gaza and they’re demanding that Columbia divest from any companies that support Israel. I agree that mass gatherings in support of Gazans is valid and necessary (assuming it’s not anti-Semitic at its core).…
The student protestors of 1968 were protesting University actions that had negative effects on them and the community. Occupying buildings and obstructing normal operations made sense in that context. The University was the only entity capable of making the changes the student…
In addition, students were supporting local objections to Columbia’s planned construction of a gymnasium and community rec center in Harlem. The design of the building had separate entrances for students and community members - a choice that smacked of racial segregation. 4/
I did some reading on the 1968 protests at Columbia to better understand the parallels to what’s happening today. It turns out there aren’t a lot. 1/
The protests in 1968 started after students learned of Columbia’s involvement in a weapons research think tank that was supporting Viet Nam war efforts. Another cause of the protests was community objections to a building project that appeared to violate the Civil Rights Act. 2/
The Viet Nam war was not just unpopular: it was an existential threat to college-aged men. Many Columbia students were likely to be drafted upon graduation. Finding out your university was complicit in a war that you and your classmates were going to be forced to fight SHOULD…

@BDNTWLGIO @DanMcCollu15644 It’s also strange all these student standing up for Gaza and doing nothing about the freedoms they are losing here at home.
@DanMcCollu15644 I would argue the opposite. I know it’s not a black and white issue but many of the protesters seem to be 100% against Israel and many of the outside provocateurs are actually pro Hamas. That’s a major issue. Then they’re blaming Biden for what Bibi is doing which is totally…
I’m still a little hazy on how breaking in to a university in New York or Arizona or Texas or blocking a bridge in California helps the people of one foreign nation who they attacked from being attacked by another foreign nation in return? These are not Biden supporters They are…
Do I agree with every word in every statement, every choice and every tactic? Maybe not. But I am moved by their maturity, persistence and grace. These aren’t kids. These are leaders. (10/10)
