As the @UChicago encampment ramps up, @NorthwesternU President Michael Schill announces an agreement with pro-Palestinian student activists there.
Power is in the longevity of a movement, and what we built was a community space for that longevity to thrive. I just hope and encourage students to continue to show up even if that space will not look the same

Notable—unlike other schools, Wesleyan Uni says it will not clear an encampment so long as it remains non-violent: "This morning you can find pro-Palestinian protestors camped out…as long as we all reject violence, we have opportunities to listen and to learn from one another."
could we consider just maybe holding the actual members of the Israeli cabinet to the same standard that we apparently hold 19 year old American college students

It's not up to us to decide if this is a victory for organizers or not. People definitely have thoughts and we definitely have thoughts and folks can probably guess what those thoughts are. Life is a highway. Northwestern is gonna do what Northwestern does.
I can't take a man named Brad Smith serious but that's just me. y'all be easy
Just obtained video showing police remove a woman’s hijab at ASU. Legal sources tell @abc15 that four women had this happen. It’s another constitutional issue from this weekend's protests. *This is a screenshot. Video posted in next tweet*
We're off the ground for now but will be back this evening. Please send us all manner of photos/IDs of agitators and far right propagandists spotted. Starting a monitoring list. Given U of C's profile and the temperature nationally, trying to keep a close eye on who shows up.

Listening to a Mexican DJ and he gives a little homily about a MX-US singer “Where does Mexico end? Not at the border, look at LA, Chicago. You see a lot of Mexican areas and life. 🇲🇽 is more of an idea, a people, a way of living, a way of eating, than what’s on the map” Based.
Beautiful sight to see students keeping each other fed at the UChicago encampment
I find it interesting but not at all surprising that the organizer for yesterday's Northwestern encampment counter-protest, a grad student at Kellogg, openly admitted to working with law enforcement and having a prior career at the pentagon
whether it's an israeli who considers the sustenance of a gazan child an existential threat or a new york commuter who trembles at the mere presence of an unhoused person, we need to uncompromisingly confront the weaponization of "fear" on an institutional and individual level
“I ain’t reading all that” got me cracking up. The kids are iight after all.

DISCLOSE! DIVEST! WE WILL NOT STOP, WE WILL NOT REST!! ❤️🔥 Hundreds of Columbia University students are gathered for an emergency rally to protect the Gaza Solidarity Encampment. We will continue until our demands are met. We will not be intimidated. #cu4Palestine
It’s 2 pm — the deadline Columbia’s president set for students to leave the encampment. But the tents are still there, and now the lawn is surrounded by hundreds of protesters advocating for divestment

As the @UChicago encampment ramps up, @NorthwesternU President Michael Schill announces an agreement with pro-Palestinian student activists there.
Power is in the longevity of a movement, and what we built was a community space for that longevity to thrive. I just hope and encourage students to continue to show up even if that space will not look the same
“It’s not about the tents…it’s about liberation for Palestine” A speaker addresses the concession that the tents will be taken down except for a few areas that will be allowed to remain until the end of the quarter. “Our power is not in the tents…it’s in us”
Notable—unlike other schools, Wesleyan Uni says it will not clear an encampment so long as it remains non-violent: "This morning you can find pro-Palestinian protestors camped out…as long as we all reject violence, we have opportunities to listen and to learn from one another."
Wesleyan explicitly addresses people being "concerned about their own relation" to Israel's war—rather than just discuss whether they're allowed to protest at all: "May we at Wesleyan find ways to learn…determining what it is we can do to serve the goal of a sustainable peace…"

Here's Bibi's finance minister calling for the "complete destruction" of Gaza. The most remarkable thing about this is that it's not at all remarkable. Bibi's far right ministers have been saying this stuff openly since 10/7. It's time to end American support for these psychos.

It's not up to us to decide if this is a victory for organizers or not. People definitely have thoughts and we definitely have thoughts and folks can probably guess what those thoughts are. Life is a highway. Northwestern is gonna do what Northwestern does.
I can't take a man named Brad Smith serious but that's just me. y'all be easy
In Opinion: “Chanting "from the river to the sea" is antisemitic, calling for the elimination of Jews and Israel from the Middle East,” writes Brad Smith (McCormick ’81). dailynorthwestern.com/2024/04/28/opi…
I predict that the students are gonna get absolutely dogpiled so I'm not going to add any more to it. But I don't expect anything at all to change at NU, based on the language of the agreement. I expect that NU will come up with reasons to not show investments and ACIR will fail.
In the context of all other student protests around the country, this seems like a really massive capitulation. No divestment, more committees, adhering to university guidelines on further protest. I'm not there so I hope to hear more as to why this was sufficient for organizers
BREAKING: Student demonstrators wrapped up negotiations with the University Monday after five days of demonstrations. dailynorthwestern.com/2024/04/29/cam…
My office was right by the encampment, and I cannot understand how it interferes with exams. It’s that little red circle. Not a single notable the protest in the history of modern protest would meet the requirements of “acceptable” protest from many past free speech advocates.
One cannot disrupt the ability of one's fellow students to take exams or graduate with impunity. It's common courtesy and common sense. Such imposition of costs on one's fellows is not free expression.
Just obtained video showing police remove a woman’s hijab at ASU. Legal sources tell @abc15 that four women had this happen. It’s another constitutional issue from this weekend's protests. *This is a screenshot. Video posted in next tweet*
Here's the full text of the agreement between NU admin and "a group of students and faculty who represent the majority of the protestors," according to uni press release.
We're off the ground for now but will be back this evening. Please send us all manner of photos/IDs of agitators and far right propagandists spotted. Starting a monitoring list. Given U of C's profile and the temperature nationally, trying to keep a close eye on who shows up.
