This is unacceptable.
These students are exercising their first amendment right to protest - they are not a threat to public safety. This violent response is dangerous and totally uncalled for. Law enforcement can maintain safety without force and without using chemical agents on unarmed protesters.

There seems to be some confusion about what the word "ceasefire" means. Hope this helps.

not enough people are freaked out that universities are largely run by people who find protests more dangerous than literal rapists.

We can’t normalize this. This isn’t normal. A group of students were sitting on the lawn of their own school. Daring to ask for peace in Gaza.

For those wondering who will pick up the mess on UT Austin’s main quad: Students are cleaning it up. As soon as the police line was pushed back, students immediately got to work cleaning up their campus.
The impetus to defund the police just became significantly less abstract for these kids. That said, the way they're taking care of each other is beautiful to see.

After seven months I am baffled that so-called intellectuals can’t grasp the most basic truth that there are humans around the world live-streaming the most barbaric slaughter of fellow humans and wanting it to stop. That’s it. You can stop writing your op-eds and go home now.

These pro-Palestinian student protests and encampments are doing more to assert some sense of moral authority for the United States in the world than anything else that’s taken place in a long time.
The single most jarring thing I’ve learned from social media time and time again is that so many people *sincerely* cannot imagine that anyone would simply care about other humans

Twitter has suspended Nelson Mandela's grandson, as he's about to set off on the Freedom Flotilla to take aid to Gaza.
Ok I just found this amazing directory of student encampments for Palestine and their demands students4gaza.directory
I am NOT a Jill Stein fan and this is not an endorsement. But tell me how fucking cops are justified attacking a 73 year old woman with a bicycle? How are they justified doing any of this shit to the college students who ARE PROTESTING A GENOCIDE & MASS SLAUGHTER?

These are VCU students exercising their right to free speech on their own campus. This is an unconscionable human rights violation.
Officers move in. Pepper spray has been deployed and protesters threw bottles and other projectiles at officers.
At the first rally for the brand new UChicago encampment, a student in UChicago Jews for Palestine gave a speech about the values of Passover, the history of Jewish labor organizing and resistance to colonialism He had the crowd chanting Long Live in Palestine in Yiddish!
This is a wild photo.
Students are watching from inside the library
If you aren’t putting together that every protest movement in our country gets met with hyper militarized police force except white supremacists it’s easy to miss your rights being swept away as well
Did a teach-in @USC encampment today—one of my best teaching experiences ever. We talked abt power of communication, meanings of “public”, challenging institution control of language & borders, & more. Students were so lovely, caring, smart. Visit a protest, support students!
@RickABright @RealAnitaWhite I wish they’d kick it in yesterday
This is unacceptable. VCU sent police into a peaceful demonstration and incited violence against young people, who are crying out for an end to unnecessary violence in Gaza.
Arrests being made with force. These students weren’t doing anything violent. One says “we’re just kids”
This is unacceptable.
Incredible scene here at UT as 50 or so protesters cower together in the center as DPS pulls them from the pack to detain them one by one
These students are exercising their first amendment right to protest - they are not a threat to public safety. This violent response is dangerous and totally uncalled for. Law enforcement can maintain safety without force and without using chemical agents on unarmed protesters.
BREAKING UPDATE: Police have deployed tear gas on the pro-ceasefire protesters at VCU's Cabell Library. News crews, including our 8News team members, were reportedly hit. #VCU #RVA trib.al/ropBy13
headlines like this. can’t wrap my head around it
If McGill University's acknowledgment of being on unceded Kanien'kehá:ka territory is sincere, then it should honor the permission granted to the students by my community and nation.
The traditional council of Kahnawake has confirmed that students have the right to be on this land.
This is unacceptable @VCU. Sending in the police to break up a peaceful protest at a public university is a complete violation of these students’ right to free speech and assembly.
Arrests being made with force. These students weren’t doing anything violent. One says “we’re just kids”
I unequivocally condemn @Tulane deploying mounted police against peaceful protestors.
Student protesters were right about segregation in the early '60s, right about Vietnam in the late '60s, right about apartheid in the '80s, right about Iraq in 2003, and right about wealth inequality in 2011. Seems generally bad to side against student movements.
Disgusting and disturbing. Shame on Virginia State Police, VCU police and Richmond Police for causing a major issue at VCU. @LevarStoney - you’re the mayor, do something to stop the violence from RPD. Everything was peaceful until the police showed up.
Arrests being made with force. These students weren’t doing anything violent. One says “we’re just kids”
that's. how. you. use. tenure. waheguru.
