“what struck me most about those who are protesting is how long they waited. the restraint they showed. not the spontaneity, the restraint. they waited and waited for justice. and it didn’t come. no one talks about that...” - Toni Morrison
The medical syringe has become a tool of control during police encounters, a practice that has quietly spread based on questionable science. Dozens of deaths reveal the risks of injecting sedatives into people restrained by police, AP finds. bit.ly/3WbIwob

Remembering the 1968 Orangeburg Massacre When Police Shot Dead Three Unarmed Black Students democracynow.org/2019/11/8/reme… via @democracynow
Beautiful and massive gathering today led by Faculty and Staff for Justice in Palestine. We stood to together and locked arms in defense, support, and protection of our students who were brutalized yesterday as they gathered peacefully. We protect us.
NEW: UT Austin released "protest rules" that say "individuals may not come to campus without authorization," which is in direct contradiction to a video they published 6 months ago that says members of the public can "come to campus at any time and engage in demonstrations."
"There is a fairly high likelihood I will be fired today...I can't sit here and watch this anymore." Chills.

BREAKING: UT President Jay Hartzell’s messages with a state senator and the UT System Chancellor reveal he requested additional help from DPS at yesterday’s protest because “our police force couldn’t do it alone,” according to messages obtained by The Austin American-Statesman.
Faculty from @UTAustin Black Studies speak now. “We stand beside all students who fight for a just future.”
Faculty have formed a human barrier between their CUNY students and campus police.
Nearly 1000 faculty and students gathered in front of the UT Tower today to protest at least 57 arrests made Wednesday, when law enforcement in riot gear attempted to shut down a pro-Palestine protest on campus. The UT-Austin Faculty and Staff Justice for Palestine organized…
Scenes from the campus of the University of Texas where students, faculty and community members gathered to continue their protest from yesterday and decry the arrest of protesters on campus yesterday. For @statesman #UTAustin

The crowd at the Palestinian solidarity protest at UT Austin is five times the size of the protest that State Troopers forcefully arrested yesterday. This is the Barbara Streisand Effect in action.

There is a massive crowd here at UT Austin today after over 50 students were arrested for peacefully protesting yesterday. I’m here in solidarity with everyone who was subject to those terrible events.
Back at UT Austin for day two of protests. This one says it is both intended to support Gaza and to condemn the police response yesterday. The crowd is at least 5x larger than the crowd that showed up yesterday at this time. Peaceful, quiet. Very little law enforcement presence.
If you’re faculty at a university where there are protests, remember there are lots of ways to support, publicly & privately, tenured or not. Here’s a few: -Know your faculty rights & rules -Amplify protest info on your social media, privately to colleagues or in class
Thanks for this timely reminder of @UTAustin’s supposed support for free speech on campus! Why has policy changed so drastically in 6 months @JCHartzell?

✴️The Texas AAUP-AFT is appalled that State Troopers were called onto a Texas university campus & arrested students who were peaceably assembled. Campuses should be places for our students to learn without fear of arrest by state troopers in riot gear. aaup-utaustin.org/2024/04/24/pre…
