My friend watched an NYPD officer by Columbia University deny a student access to her own dorm which she needed to get into to get her epilepsy meds. She then collapsed and the officer failed to call an ambulance. They have his badge number Office of the Public Advocate Jumaane D. Williams Jumaane Williams, can you help?

I am tired of trying to prove to the world that Palestinians are humans too. They are blowing up entire residential blocks killing countless women and children. Don't stop talking about Gaza.

The propaganda is insidious because it's embedded in the false premise of the whole story. There is no 'wave of antisemitism.' It is not an 'Israel-Hamas war.' There is an Israeli genocide against Palestinians. NYT invocation of 'antisemitism wave' as premise is genocide denial.

Giving us 15 minutes to pack up and leave from our housing is seriously twisted. I am not surprised at all — I am glad administration is finally showing their face to the general student body, because student organizers have known from the start how evil these administrators are.

Just got out of jail after Columbia called NYPD to mass arrest 100+ students. I have been suspended and evicted from housing by Barnard. This has only strengthened my commitment to the movement for Palestinian liberation and I promise to continue fighting for divestment.

Throwing faculty members under the bus, suspending Rep. Ilhan Omar's daughter, inviting the NYPD to arrest her own students...

It seems like Columbia's president is concerned first and foremost with placating the GOP politicians who criticize her.

The carceral system dehumanizes and exploits people. The Appeal documents how capitalism thrives in prisons and takes advantage of people with no options.

What’s going to be an unintended result of Columbia having their students arrested is they’re about to expose a bunch of middle and upper middle class families to how NYPD, cash bail, and Rikers are weaponized against people in this city everyday.

I was grateful to interview Rachel Herzing & Justin Piché, PhD about their fantastic book, How to Abolish Prisons (@haymarketbooks), for Truthout and Inquest. I learned so much from the book’s concrete, wide-ranging stories of abolitionist campaigns.

Despite the fact that college campuses are often portrayed by mainstream media like they’re the breeding grounds for radical progressives, what’s left out of that narrative are the college administrations that punish, police & gatekeep those students every chance they get.

We offer unconditional solidarity with Columbia students facing down the deputized thugs of the NYPD.

Our struggle must de-legitimize and divest from the imperial centers of knowledge production — from the Ivy League to the New York Times.

Jail support 1PP. Free Palestine!
