So I guess whoever runs this account decided sounding like a mafia boss was a good idea.

if any of you live in NYC PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE show up to columbia university within the hour, they're planning to bring in the national guard to "disperse" the gaza solidarity encampment.

in case you don’t know what happened last time the national guard was called in to put down a student protest:

the national guard opened fire on crowds and killed students.

your presence could be the difference between life and death for these student protestors. it could mean the difference between millions of columbia's dollars going towards genocide and the zionist entity losing millions of dollars. PLEASE SHOW UP.

We do not speak for the whole department, in which there is a diversity of opinions, but feel the moment’s gravity requires us to speak forcefully about recent events at Columbia and the way forward. (2/16)

We are alarmed by Columbia University’s decision to call upon the NYPD to arrest its students on campus for their participation in the April 18 encampment protests, for the following reasons: (3/16)

First, reliable reports (as well as our own eyewitness impressions) are that the student encampment was not violent and did not threaten violence. (4/16)

As quoted in the Columbia Spectator, the NYPD Chief asserted that “the students that were arrested were peaceful, offered no resistance whatsoever, and were saying what they wanted to say in a peaceful manner.” (5/16)

While all universities must enforce their rules, they must also be wary of resorting to external police officers unless truly unusual circumstances demand it. We call on the University to seek a more prudent course of action going forward. (6/16)

Second, under the pretext of a “clear and present danger” the decision to call the police into campus violated the important principle of shared governance. (7/16)

The relevant Senate committee was not consulted, as required by university rules, but merely notified and the action proceeded despite the Senate committee objecting to it and advising against it. (8/16)

Third, the decision to call the police into campus violated also the important principle of protecting free expression on campus. Coupled with the testimony given by the President Shafik and members of the Board of Trustees in Congress, (9/16)

in which they failed to defend crucial values of academic freedom, the police action seems like capitulation to forces outside the university that would like to curtail academic freedom and freedom of expression. (10/16)

Finally, the suspensions of the arrested students seem to us irregular, unnecessary and resting on shaky legal ground. We call on the university to immediately reverse these suspensions and allow the affected students to return to their dorms and to their courses. (11/16)

For our own part, as members of the faculty of the department of sociology, we will continue to keep our courses open to these students, we will grade their exams and papers, and we will give them final grades in our courses so they may receive credit. (12/16)

Everyone should follow what's happening at Columbia right now. This is the largest protest there since 1968, and the admin just stripped several students of healthcare and housing.

The NYPD arrested over 108 students camping on the South Lawn yesterday. Now, thousands have joined the demonstration. As Israel prepares to commit genocide, Palestinian and Jewish students are taking the lead in protesting institutional complicity around the world.

The iconic logo of the lady holding the torch that you currently see at the beginning of every Columbia Pictures movie was born in the apartment of Pulitzer Prize-winning New Orleans photographer Kathy Anderson in 1991.

The final version is a painting, but few people know that it was based on a photo of the photographer’s colleague, captured during a portrait shoot in a small space using very simple props.

“During the shoot, Jenny asked if she could sit down for a minute,” says the photographer. “I shot one frame of her seated, which may be my favorite image from the shoot. But after chatting for a minute, she confided that she was pregnant. After congratulating her, we resumed shooting, but I was worried about her standing on the box.”
