Receiving word that Princeton has locked down Morrison Hall, home to the African American Studies. A significant number of us who took Clio Hall yesterday, including a faculty observer, are AAS affiliates. This is clearly anti-Black policing and punishment. Just gross!
I unequivocally condemn @Tulane deploying mounted police against peaceful protestors.
hearing that the students in our UConn campus jail are not being fed. also we have a campus jail.
UConn students, who were protesting peacefully and safely, have been subjected to disproportionate police response that has harmed academic freedom. This morning, 23 of them were arrested. UConn’s president has made a mockery of our commitment to intellectual exchange.
Robin G. Kelley: “It is time to listen to [student] demands, acknowledge the loss of tens of thousands of Palestinian lives, stop funding apartheid and genocide, drop all charges against the protesters, restore their student status, [and] give them complete amnesty.”

Cant go to my office today because my ID wont get me in. First time ever in my West Indian life that I feel bad about being told to stay home from work (!!) But my employer just doesnt want faculty present to witness whatever they are going to pull on protesting students today
thanks everyone for your support for our UConn students. It means the world to me to know that there is a community beyond the university that cares about their civil rights and the free exchange of ideas
while we obsess over every tiny moment at student protests here, israel is planning to invade rafah, which is expected to be magnitudes more brutal than even what we've seen thus far thecradle.co/articles-id/24…
what I love about this generation of young people is how much they sincerely believe in their responsibility to “make a change.” this demands stewardship and trust, not arrest and defunding. I just can’t get over the level of betrayal happening in universities right now.
hearing reports from corner to corner of the UConn campus that students are being surveilled by police. Be safe out there everybody
Lmao someday I’ll be able to process what it felt like being arrested, detained, and booked in Princeton’s DEI office and how when I emerged the entire community of “the country’s most apathetic university” was there ready to de-arrest us. Processing someday, relishing now ❤️🔥

just an absolutely heartbreaking day in UConn’s history.I am in awe of President Maric’s cowardice. No statement to the university, hiding behind lower admins, conveying a brazen contempt for our students through the deployment of police on campus.
23 Students arrested while peacefully protesting on a public university campus.

@melanienewport Not a historian but this was going to be my exact answer.
@melanienewport Is there mutual aid set up to help these students? If so, can you send me the info?
@melanienewport HARLAN COUNTY USA of course, but I wanna see some others.
@melanienewport I'm so mortified to hear that. What jurisdiction do they have? What authority? The university is a fucking business,not a government of any sort!
Today I wanted to work in a coffee shop. I'm on the Farmington Ave bus lane so could hit West Hartford Center for Hartford Baking Company or Downtown Hartford for Victus coffee. Victus FTW.
Yesterday a colleague asked if we could meet at a coffee shop that had sandwiches. When I told him about their bike lane stance we went to Sparrow instead. And this pizza was delicious.
UConn students, who were protesting peacefully and safely, have been subjected to disproportionate police response that has harmed academic freedom. This morning, 23 of them were arrested. UConn’s president has made a mockery of our commitment to intellectual exchange.

@melanienewport Your employer, and so many others, are behaving reprehensibly. I'm glad you can support your students though
The school that administers the Pulitzer Prizes will not be allowing press on campus 🥴
Due to the campus lockdown, press-credentialed media will NOT be allowed on the Columbia University campus today
Cant go to my office today because my ID wont get me in. First time ever in my West Indian life that I feel bad about being told to stay home from work (!!) But my employer just doesnt want faculty present to witness whatever they are going to pull on protesting students today
