With a heavy heart I announce that my 18-year-old younger sister, Lara Sayegh, was killed today on her way from Gaza City to the south. She and my mother were reaching Egypt for safety. My angel collapsed as she was walking on the “safe route” past the Israeli checkpoint, in an…

NYU faculty creating a ring around the Gaza solidarity encampment to protect their students after the school threatened mass arrest. So beautiful.

“Anti-Vietnam War protestors at Columbia wanted PEACE, they didn’t support the Vietcong! They didn’t support violent resistance!”

Anti-Vietnam War protestors at Columbia:

both funny and infuriating to see elected officials and media outlets portray Columbia University students who support Palestine as violent mobs when in reality, we are a bunch of nerds sitting on the grass.

As a Ferguson activist, I know what it’s like to have agitators infiltrate our movement, manipulate the press, & fuel the suppression of dissent by public officials & law enforcement.

We must reject these tactics to silence anti-war activists demanding divestment from genocide.

Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine Those of us with platforms need to remember everything we do and say or (don't say) has impact. Each of the escalations this week occurred because of single actions or statements made by people in power. Please remember that these are students. Protect them. Center their voices.

My usual TV beat is food, but I'm also a current Columbia University student, and I'm so sad & so frustrated with the way student protests on our campus are being reported. This will be imperfect, but I can't watch things that are so contrary to what I've actually seen and stay silent. 🧵

NYPD arrested NYU FACULTY during seder and prayer. this is actually insane.

Actually, this video is good! It proves, from the Zionists' own documentation, that Palestine solidarity encampments on campuses *are* peaceful. This person wants confrontation, but that's not what the students want. They're there for divestment and a free Palestine.

TIL Google Docs has a 'code block' that you can paste code into and it'll highlight it correctly, but Google Slides does not have that feature, BUT you can paste the highlighted code from a doc to a slide. Our seamless technological future continues.

Columbia University students protesting for Gaza, and students on campuses all across the country standing up against genocide and their universities’ immoral investments in Israeli companies, all while risking their careers and livelihoods.

You inspire us. We see you. Keep…

Found ourselves apologizing for a 'confusing name' for our baby at the pediatrician and realized I've gone through my whole life in the US more or less apologizing for or accepting microaggressions for my 'hard name' and I'm not going to do that anymore because my kids deserve

I’ll add here that Muslims pray five times a day. And Muslims pray in a group when they’re together. So if Muslims are outside, they’re gonna pray in a group for as long as they’re outside, up to five times a day.

During Jummah (Friday prayer) this afternoon, Columbia University students formed a human shield with blankets to provide privacy to those students participating in prayer after a video showing students praying on the lawn began circulating on social media

Growing up in post-9/11 America, my spirit has often been crushed by constant Islamophobia.

Now we are in an era where there is community that will love and protect me as I perform my most sacred rituals as we fight against genocide. This is the world I want to be a part of.

I have never seen anything like this happen before at Columbia. There is no fear left among students. Organizers were arrested en masse & when I got out of jail, I was told students occupied another lawn on their own. Hundreds are willing to risk arrest. I am so filled with hope.
