You could say Allan Hollinghurst made an impression on me at 16. Still figuring it out.

If you're a Jewish academic (TT or non-TT instructor, grad student or staff) and sick of reading about how scared you are of your (often Jewish, duh) students for their Palestine activism, please sign our open letter!

@rkgwork Now 484 and counting. And not just profs: all teaching roles, staff, and grad students invited to sign. If you're a Jewish academic and sick of reading about how scared you are of your (often Jewish, duh) students for their Palestine activism, please sign!

Jewish Professors: We Support Rutgers' Handling Of Gaza Protest https://t.co/PfodTTQOSl

[Jeff Melnick @melnickjeffrey1]

If you are Jewish (in any way) and an academic worker (in any way) please consider signing this defense of Rutgers and the effort there to engage in real dialogue. The organized attacks have already begun.

This is a big deal beyond New Jersey. Rutgers' president is facing Stefanik's show trial in Congress on 5/23 and we want him to call bullshit on the claim that Palestine solidarity is antisemitic or that serving our Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim students hurts Jews. Help us out!

[Read Jackson Rising @JPHilllllll]

This must be the antisemitic movement I've heard so much about

[Simone Zimmerman @simonerzim]

Spent the first night of Passover at the student seder in the Gaza solidarity encampment at Columbia.

The Jewish flank of the Palestine solidarity movement is growing and it is so beautiful to behold.

Judge for yourself how unsafe these Jewish students look.

[Katherine Franke @ProfKFranke]

1 hour before this event with @OmarSShakir of @hrw was to take place at @ColumbiaLaw, the student organizers were told that the event was cancelled by the University, for failure to comply with a new event policy.

[David Kurnick @DavidKurnick]

Surprise, surprise.

We have reached a new moment in American history:
"Columbia University is suspending Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) as official student groups through the end of the fall term. https://t.co/YMTWeAR3z3

[DRUM #CeasefireNow @DesisRisingUp]

NYC high school students walking out from across the city in the hundreds today to demand a #CeasefireNow in Gaza!

These students will not be silent while Biden funds genocide!

[BreakThrough News @BTnewsroom]

BREAKING: Media workers have taken over the lobby of the New York Times headquarters in NYC in protest of their biased coverage of Palestine.

They are reading from newspapers bearing the names of the thousands of Gazans murdered by Israel in the last month.

[Noura Erakat @4noura]

This teach in is not to be missed. Dedicated to the folks fomenting genocide in the name of humanity.

Feat. Adam Horowitz, Sherene Seikaly, @SeanMac_R, and Shira Robinson. Hosted by @jadaliyya

@DYShor I am a Jew who lives in district 10 offering you and @RepDanGoldman a hearty FUCK YOU #notinmyname. It is not using an “antisemitism card” to oppose MTG’s actual, rabid antisemitism — it is defending Jews from ACTUAL ANTISEMITISM
