I’m a walkable city environmentalist. When I first called for legalizing transit-oriented homes & ending automobile subsidies, it was lonely work. It’s not now! If you agree with me, join us: parkingreform.org. We’re reforming the environmental movement & it’s working. 6/6
Wonderful to speak with the Marlborough Dems and to see my supporter Marlborough City Councilor @TreyFuccillo! The more you know about this race, the more you know we need change on the Governor’s Council. #mapoli
In the past 10 years, violent crime fell 20% and incarceration fell 45% in Massachusetts. MCI-Concord prison closed. Criminal justice reforms, advocates like @justicehealing , and progressive elected officials did that. nbcboston.com/news/local/mas…

Rights group says Israeli strike on Gaza building killed 106 in apparent war crime apnews.com/article/israel…
We are aware of reports that members of the World Central Kitchen team have been killed in an IDF attack while working to support our humanitarian food delivery efforts in Gaza. This is a tragedy. Humanitarian aid workers and civilians should NEVER be a target. EVER.
World Central Kitchen is devastated to confirm seven members of our team have been killed in an IDF strike in Gaza. Read our full statement on the loss of our team members here: wck.org/news/gaza-team…
By striking World Central Kitchen, Netanyahu accomplished his goal: deter humanitarian aid and workers from entering Gaza. Also, shutting down Al Jazeera means the world won't see what's happening there as well.

Burlington’s new Zoning is mostly unprecedented in New England. Really only comparable to ambitious reforms like Minneapolis and Sacramento. Two buildings now allowed on every parcel, multifamily along major bus routes, 4-plexes allowed everywhere.

I signed this petition for the City of Oakland and BART to build a BART station at 14th Avenue between Clinton / San Antonio and the new Brooklyn Basin. It's frankly gross how the most dense area of the east bay gets skipped right over for the suburbs. sanantoniostation.net

At one point tonight, students asked @LishaLiberty & I if we could be intermediaries btw the protests & the admin. We approached the police line and asked to talk to the admin standing behind them. They threatened us with arrest several times. 1/
anyway, I say all this to say: how are we preparing for the reality that mass arrests and protests are psychologically & physically violent b/c protestors are facing militaries with massive budgets and unchecked power? what will be the aftermath for ALL of us? 8/n
posting your whereabouts and your actions on social media is inspiring, and they also increase state-sanctioned violence & surveillance. posting the books you’re reading in encampments is important, but it makes me wonder why folx want their tools of resistance to be visible. 7/n
- we have an inkling of what might happen by studying the rise of n**ism in Europe + the “disappearances” of activists post-Ferguson. we have living elders who are political prisoners who also demonstrate what can happen 6/n
these systems use AI and other technology to further surveil folx post-arrest. so yes, the charges may get dropped, but who tf knows what they can & will do with your face and prints when it’s all said and done. 5/n
this means a few things: - students and allies are not facing the police forces of the past. they are facing militaries. enduring war/like tactics of repression & violence. - arrests give these militaries access to your biological data. your fingerprints, unmasked faces… 4/n
I want to offer this as resistance escalates on college campuses. as a former activist & organizer, as someone who has been ringing the alarm since pre-2020 about the rise of fa*cism, I implore those of us who work with students to consider the following as we fight back. 1/n
"... if the alley is considered a public way for purposes of Boston’s anti-tent ordinance, then it is also a public way for purposes of free speech."
Protest is a central part of Boston’s history, including political expression and student activism. There is a distinction between removing encampments to ensure safe access to a public right of way and using physical violence against students engaging in peaceful expression.
Homelessness is a collective failing, not a personal one. Homelessness is a policy choice, not an individual one. Involuntary homelessness is a lie. Housing solves homelessness. Jails and fees make it worse.
I had the honor of seeing the Columbia University anti-war encampment firsthand. Contrary to right-wing attacks, these students are joyfully protesting for peace and an end to the genocide taking place in Gaza. I’m in awe of their bravery and courage.
Freedom of assembly must be upheld, especially on our college campuses. I stand behind students' rights to gather in their calls for peace.
Hundreds of DC area university students and faculty gathered at George Washington University on Thursday, as students set up tents and chanted in protest of Israel’s ongoing war in Gaza. washingtonian.com/2024/04/25/dc-…
Caroline Fohlin, the Emory professor of economics seen on video being thrown to the ground and handcuffed by an Emory police officer for expressing concern at the violent arrest of a protester on campus, was jailed for 11 hours and charged with... Battery Against Police Officer
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
This is not the first hostile interaction I’ve had since the new heightened aggressive, suspicious security policy. Imagine how they are treating our Black male students. Hey Pres. Shafik & politicians how about also being concerned about anti-Black hostility & discrimination?
Just had explosive interaction w/ @Columbia’s heightened security coming onto campus. They followed me to my office & then lied, saying I didn’t scan my ID for entry (I did) & I pushed an officer (I didn’t). An ugly scene followed. They did this to me, a tenured, full professor.
Another good statement. It's a relief to see members of the Boston City Council (who were endorsed by Mayor Wu) pushing back against the disgraceful decision to unleash the full force of the BPD upon Emerson student protesters.
It was initially hard to find this record because DeKalb spelled Fohlin's name wrong.
DeKalb, Georgia court records show Fohlin, the Emory professor seen on video being thrown to the ground and handcuffed by an Emory police officer for expressing concern at the violent arrest of a protester, was jailed for 11 hours and charged with "Battery Against Police Officer"
Absolutely horrific and unacceptable. We cannot look away while atrocities like these are committed. There must be a thorough, transparent, and independent investigation, and swift accountability.
