I am SO pleased to share my new book with @JosephEntin, a labor of love. Beginning the 1st pandemic summer, thanks to SSRC & @alondra, 18 @BklynCollege411 students wrote incredible autoethnographies charting the ways inequality was playing out for their families & communities.
Faculty at @BklynCollege411 call in @ChancellorCUNY to drop the charges on the students arrested at the Gaza encampment. Why are our students facing felonies while charges dropped for NYU and many Columbia students?
NYC teachers, we're inviting YOU! Here's a free summer learning opportunity, led by me and a GREAT team of veteran educators. We'll explore histories of educational activism in NYC and connect them to current practice. Apply! https://t.co/8QuOFmSsxN
I feel like I'm losing my mind a little: people understand that "occupying buildings on campus" is, like, one of the most common forms of studen protest for decades and not some devious new ploy devised by professional anarchist plotters, right?
@SchreterLi83398 Yes, it's really important that the many Jewish students who are protesting and were arrested are kept safe, as it is for everyone else too. NYPD on campus doesn't make things safer.
As night falls and waking up at 5 AM, flying to New York and 8 hours of street reporting non-stop catches up with me, I am about to leave this party and let these young ppl who welcomed me into their space carry on. But first, some final thoughts…
