@SaraKra858 @AKayumAhmed1 I think this is a good point. There is definitely a double standard to how the media portrays violence. #P8607

@AKayumAhmed1 There is a double standard when it comes to violence. Colonizers attempt to normalize violence in the direction of the oppressed, yet the oppressed are often criticized for the use of violence during decolonization efforts. #P8607

@sh4203cumc @AKayumAhmed1 This is a really interesting campaign that I didn't know about. I think performance art, especially on college campuses, can be a very effective way to get attention and generate dialogue around the issue. #P8607

@AKayumAhmed1 By using a creative medium, particularly through social media, advocacy strategies can reach a broader, global audience. Using tactics such as poetry, art and music can create a memorable message, working as a gateway for people to understand the issue at hand. #P8607

@neekstweets @AKayumAhmed1 @Columbia @usnews @nytimes I think this is really well said. It's unfortunate that an arbitrary ranking raises more alarm than student dissatisfaction. #P8607

[Erica Munson @EricaMunson3]

@AKayumAhmed1 @Columbia @usnews @nytimes The QoL of students should be more important to CU than rankings. However, it might be effective to advocate for the right to health on campus as a means to improve CU's rank in order to use university politics to our advantage. #P8607

@MindyTran90 @AKayumAhmed1 I think this is a great perspective. I also believe that both the natural and protest scholars can work together. Natural scholars have the foundational views that protest scholars can advocate for in order to strengthen conversations and actions surrounding human rights. #P8607

[Erica Munson @EricaMunson3]

@AKayumAhmed1 Natural scholars lay the groundwork for seeing all people as equal. Protest scholars push this concept forward by fighting for equity by recognizing that social, economic, and political barriers prevent many people from receiving rights that should be inherent to them. #P8607
