Never forget that Columbia University invited Nazis to speak on campus in the 1930s and then expelled a student for leading the protest rally. They ruined his career and never apologized. Nothing has changed.

🗞️ Press release: https://t.co/BocpMi3fMg
For over 15 months of escalated genocide in Palestine, we have been flooding New York for Gaza. All the while, we have incurred both brutal repression from the NYPD and now increasing attacks from zionist organizations. Betar, Herut, and several other racist, anti-Palestinian, Islamophobic groups have attempted to instigate fights at our rallies, maced us, worked to doxx community members, and put out a reward for anyone who can hand a beeper to WOL chair Nerdeen Kiswani (effectively a death threat). Now, these same groups are planning to protest a masjid in Bay Ridge, a clear escalation of their incitement of hatred against our community. WOL, along with over 30 organizations across New York, are calling on allies to come out to Bay Ridge for a press conference, rally and salah on Wednesday at 4 PM in defense of our community and the Palestinian people.
Shame on the PSC for reversing a historic decision of the delegate assembly to divest from settler colonial genocide. Ignoring the will of the rank & file & student body, they have instead caved in to zionist/right-wing pressure to cross the Palestinian labor picket line!
Tel Aviv’s club scene is often framed as a ‘beacon of light’—progressive, diverse, and full of life. But in reality, it plays a central role in whitewashing Zionism, making apartheid look like a party. This is precisely why cultural boycott are even more important.
The U.S. is escalating its war on Palestine. On Jan 31, two bills were introduced in Congress:
• H.R. 902 (Rep. Tenney) for U.S. agencies to call the West Bank Judea & Samaria
• H.R. 867 (Rep. Lawler) expands anti-boycott laws to punish int’l orgs boycotting israel
A horrifying image of an Israeli airstrike targeting a civilian car as it passed along the designated road for returning Palestinian displaced persons to northern Gaza.

“My blog post was an invitation to locate the work we do at the City Tech WAC program within the ongoing struggles for a liberated Palestine that shape our students’ and colleagues’ lives as writers in & beyond the classroom”🔥🔥piece by CUNY grad student https://t.co/dkyG9KYGBz
