As a former student activist who learned to organize with groups like Amnesty International and the March 8th Coalition, I say power to the students. Calling for a ceasefire, release of hostages, and an end to human suffering is not a criminal act. Send peace, not the police.

I stand in solidarity with students and anti-war advocates.

He’s wrong — a majority of Americans disapprove of Israeli military action in Gaza (Gallup, late March poll). But Nate also misunderstands the point of these student protests. It’s not to mirror popular sentiment; they’re protesting to further *change* that sentiment.

Waffle House employees in Georgia walked out last week to demand better wages and conditions.

Servers make under $3 an hour and up to $5 for a meal is deducted from their paychecks, whether the worker eats the meal or not.

Exploitation is part of the company's business model.

Wait let me get this straight: 100 students were arrested because the uni claimed they had yelled “kill the Jews”. Then it turns out the student who yelled that was holding an Israeli flag, trying to unsuccessfully bait the crowd and was booed in return

2 weeks after an IDF airstrike killed 7 World Central Kitchen aid workers, Canadian charity @IDRFCanada's water truck is bombed.
