[UT Senate @utscc]

UT leadership is advocating for a multimillion dollar appropriation to create a “Liberty Institute” at UT, despite the ongoing hardships faced by students. Instead of funding this, we hope to use the appropriations for other resources that help students on campus.

community members and organizations should sign the statement released by NAIPA and NAIC!! https://t.co/BxZZcSHooX

As part of the UT community, we have a responsibility to respect the wishes of the Miakan-Garza band and amplify their demands. The fate of these ancestral remains belongs in the hands of their people, not an academic institution built on stolen land. https://t.co/KfiSdaBOXd

Trump has sent Feds into our cities to collab with local police and white supremacist vigilantes.

Join us for an urgent call with frontline organizers to understand the moment we are in and how we fight back.

Decolonizing is more about the material return of land to Indigenous stewards than it is about becoming a buzzword for settler professors to use 😳 Decolonization is hard, challenging, and deeply personal. It wasn’t made for ivy towers to use as a cute tag.

[Coalition for UT Divest @divest_ut]

start by removing racist building names and statues, disciplining greek life, and banning the Round Up period. then maybe u can say u don’t “shirk ur responsibility”

student organizers aren’t shirking shit. they’re out here every day despite the ur barriers

[Jay Hartzell @JCHartzell]

As Longhorns, when we are tested, we don’t shy away.  When we are challenged, we don’t shirk our responsibility.  We come together to take on the most important and difficult issues of our time.

AUSTIN: AUSTIN LAWYER'S GUILD will have their phone lines open, and can be reached at 512-817-4ALG (512-817-4254). WRITE THIS ON YOUR BODY. On a couple limbs to make sure it will not sweat off. Look out for the people wearing green legal observer hats to alert to any cop activity

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

But here's the thing. It's not just cops killing black people.

Capitalism kills black people at a rate cops could never begin to compete with.

For starters, there are grossly disproportionate black deaths to disease, whether it be COVID, heart disease, or diabetes.
