Iโm still reeling from last nightโs appalling violence and fascistic show of force (all under a so-called Democratic administration). My thoughts on behalf of Jews for Racial & Economic Justice, below.
I keep going back to this as well. Columbia University had plenty of time to prepare a rebuttal in Congress that could have exposed the MAGA agenda behind its inflammatory bad-faith hearings. Instead, Shafik gave them exactly what they wanted. Last nightโs violence was a direct outcome ๐
Just heard on WKCR-FM NY that Columbia University has asked the NYPD to stay on campus until May 17 โto ensure the encampments do not get re-established.โ Trading leadership for violent repression. Cowardly, shameful, unforgivable.
I thought everyone from every walk of life had already marched on Chuck Schumer to wake up and stop arming Israeli massacres and forced starvation.
Then came the children of Jews for Racial & Economic Justice โค๏ธ๐
