It’s official. Hawai‘i is the first state to call for an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
months in the making! @sarahemilybaum on solidarity Shabbos for ceasefire on college campuses since Feb @jvplive. they spoke to Jewish students at campuses nationwide for the last few months—including this week at Columbia—about their faith. @TeenVogue teenvogue.com/story/jewish-s…
there may be a dearth of positive vibes and yet ….
.@cmlcornell’s full statement on my and three other students’ suspensions from Cornell University. My proudest moments at Cornell have come organizing with these people — the most courageous, kind, and principled students, grad workers, staff and faculty on this campus.
I have also been evicted from my home on campus. My suspension comes during @Cornell’s “Freedom of Expression Theme Year,” where they have held numerous events celebrating the right to protest. More thoughts to come
NOW: Mumia Abu-Jamal is calling in to the CUNY-CCNY encampment from prison. Students blast his phone call over the encampment audio system.
“This is a moment for independent journalists,” Abu-Jamal says. Immediately after the prison phone call system cuts him off, a student journalist grabs the mic and suggests putting together an encampment publication of their own, to be called the People’s University Press.
I have been suspended from Cornell University alongside three others for my presence in our encampment. Cornell thinks that picking off four students will be sufficient to destroy our movement. They’re wrong — all they have done is enraged our community.
Cornell University has temporary suspended me alongside 3 other students/grad workers. They have deliberately targeted students with precarious positions such as visa status. They have given me a grace period but I am no longer permitted on campus. I know they have done this as a…

I'd love to speak to college organizers who have set up D/deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent contingents at campus encampments for a piece. My email is in my bio and my DM’s are open. I’m curious about how disabled students are showing up for these protests.
I keep saying it but I really really hope this moment is bringing everyone to police abolition. Police will always stand between us and the future we want, no matter what form of justice you fight for. Abolition resource guide here: micahherskind.com/abolition-reso…

It’s official. Hawai‘i is the first state to call for an immediate, permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
Nick is among my smartest students, and I urge @Cornell admins to find alternative ways of responding to the encampment.
I have been suspended from Cornell University alongside three others for my presence in our encampment. Cornell thinks that picking off four students will be sufficient to destroy our movement. They’re wrong — all they have done is enraged our community.

Idk I have a sinus infection from sleeping exposed 2 nights ago & my lil congested brain is just in awe at the ways humans naturally gravitate toward collectivist concepts as a matter of survival, & how the system in power is built to work against our innate way of being.
The same way in 2020 when people realized they needed help getting groceries and their less at-risk neighbors stepped up to provide for them, or when protestors were brutally mass arrested and needed care and community once released — knowing the term came after doing.
It’s also really fascinating to see people come to abolitionist & anarchist concepts — mutual aid, jail support, collective defense and decision-making — as organic problem-solving. They might not necessarily realize they’re doing it, it’s just the most common sense path forward.
Aside from divestment and solidarity with Palestine, the encampment demos are really informative as to how incredibly difficult it is for unhoused people to be denied access to tents, public bathrooms, whose belongings are under constant threat of being swept.
