So, BDS movement has been going on for a long time and really picked up visibility in the US around 2015. To counter, Israel started lobbying local, state, and federal government officials to pass laws making it illegal for public entities to support BDS.

One reason rapidly spreading college protests are being fought exceptionally hard is the 3.5% rule. Historically it takes just 3.5% of a population to challenge the government before it can't resist change. For the US that's about 12 million, there are 18 million college students
Tempe Police and Sheriffs Department arresting peaceful students at Arizona State University. Shame on you @ASU

A lot of you all would’ve absolutely hated the Civil Rights Movement had you lived through it, and it shows.
TOMORROW @ 3PM POLK PLACE, UNC CHAPEL HILL
Good morning UNC 🌤️🇵🇸
The pro-Palestinian encampment at UNC that began on Friday morning has entered its second day, reaching the 24-hour mark at 9:45 a.m. on Saturday morning. bit.ly/3JCSPtT
The comparison to the fight against the apartheid is deliberate. Nelson Mandela was famously supportive of Palestine, seeing parallels, & citing, “We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians.” He often wore a keffiyeh to show support.

not to detract from how significant this at all but in this context it is especially important to include that hawai’i is a sovereign nation that was overthrown in an illegal coup and has remained under illegal military occupation by the US government for over 130 years

i find it really intriguing how the south’s student activism never gets as much media attention as other regions. day 28 of Vanderbilt’s encampment and i only read about it being the first university to start one YESTERDAY.

I cannot stop thinking about the choice to point guns at students who spent their entire childhoods training to survive too frequent school shootings and who are out protesting because students half way across the world are being murdered America hates its kids so fucking much
Getting concessions before they've even begun, now that's power.

Girls5Eva + Chappel Roan crossover when?? I neeed to see them collab on BPE.
For every encampment cleared, 10 more crop up. For every student suspended, 50 more arrive with blankets. For every student/professor attacked, 100 peaceful tents are put up. They cannot stop our generation and our hunger for peace and justice.
What a coward
Honestly, the camp is so huge now, no police department can just come in and knock it down. These students have occupied Deering Lawn, and they will not leave until their demands are met. This is a student takeover for the history books.

There have now been Palestine solidarity & anti-war student actions on at least 75 U.S. college campuses in the past week
IT WAS NEVER ABOUT THE HOSTAGES
“We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.” timesofisrael.com/no-doubt-netan… via @TimesofIsrael
@NTarnopolsky @ynet Am I the only one getting tired of hearing these super Zionists’ asserting that ‘feeling threatened’ justifies just about anything they do?
“The administration is forcing us to take our tents down at 1:45 p.m.,” a SJP leader announced to boos from members of the encampment. The group will take the poles out of the tents at 1:30 p.m. to comply with policy but will remain in the encampment on Polk Place.
the thing for me is the image of a professor saying “I’m a professor” as cops fuck them up, as though they thought, until then, and even still do, that it might make a difference. the things we learn and unlearn, the illusions we cling to just to stay sane, for years, just, fuck
Rosa Parks shouldve just moved, she made people late on that bus
@CapriSunnPapi You're not protesting for Palestine by preventing some minimum wage worker from getting to work on time Get out of the road
they got the fashion girlies? it's literally joever wow
Students at FIT have just taken over the museum building and set up a Gaza Solidarity Encampment 🇵🇸🫡
I am genuinely curious about how Biden’s folks think there’s a path forward in November when the cops he helped fund are out here brutalizing an important part of his base for … saying “stop killing kids” I dunno, seems like a losing strategy but I guess I’m not a DNC genius
Wow—Former spokesperson for hostage families says Hamas offered to immediately release all hostages if IDF didn't invade Gaza "but the government rejected the proposal." Says families weren't notified about invasion + risks it could pose. "Netanyahu has thwarted" hostage release.
As the daughter of a holocaust survivor & as an Israeli-born Jewish anti-Zionist, I’ve been around too long to be shocked by shameless weaponization of antisemitism. But is it too much to ask that those throwing around accusations of antisemitism give just ONE concrete example??
I’m deeply disturbed by the appalling antisemitism being displayed on Columbia University’s campus. Threats of violence against Jewish students are absolutely despicable, and this appalling rhetoric must end now. Our Jewish friends and neighbors deserve the right to live and…
"I do feel that the students are highly critical of Israeli politics, and I do not believe that is inherently antisemitic at all. And I do not feel threatened as a Jewish faculty member in any way by whats happening on campus" Professor Susan Bernofsky from Columbia university
Proud of fellow Jews for joining campus protests, but the protests would in no way be antisemitic in their absence. The protests are righteous because their cause is just.
they just… said it
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 US Senator reveals why the government wants TikTok banned. Pro-Palestinian and Hamas videos on TikTok "have more reach than the top 10 US news websites combined."
We are seeing greater state violence enacted at college protests than Nazi marches. Don’t you dare fucking tell me any of this is about Jewish safety or antisemitism. And every pro Palestine college protest includes a significant number of Jewish students
Don’t give Zionists an inch. Refuse their framing wholly & completely. These are people manufacturing an “antisemitism crisis” to defend mass murder & settler-colonialism. Stay laser-focused on ending the holocaust in Palestine & dismantling the Zionist entity in its entirety.
TikTok isn’t even “OWNED” by China. This is just…..xenophobia and our politicians thinking we’re dumb. TikTok is 60% owned by global investors 3 of the 5 seats on TikTok’s board are AMERICAN 20% of the app is owned by TikTok employees HQ’d in LOS ANGELES AND SINGAPORE
A Jewish student taking part in the encampment at Columbia Univesity says he feels "100% safe” and that US officials are trying to evade Israel’s war crimes by focusing on "Anti-Semitism" on college campuses
I hate that the west makes Palestinians have to talk about Judaism & antisemitism at all. Palestinians didn’t pick the identity of their occupiers. I wish the media collectively shifted the narrative away from white Jewish fear toward the 75yr struggle for Palestinian liberation
