For @NewYorker, I wrote about the East Village Eye—a paper with columns by David Wojnarowicz and Cookie Mueller, and one of the first to cover hip hop. It was a peak of my reporting life to go under Bryant Park, where @nypl will store the Eye archives! https://t.co/uRxvgcJ2Ik

“We are a gentle, angry people and we are singing for our lives. We are mourning our loved ones, and we are signing for their lives” @GovKathyHochul - your inaction is our loved ones. #EndOverdoseNY

[Columbia Daily Spectator @ColumbiaSpec]

BREAKING: University President Minouche Shafik resigned from her post on Wednesday, Shafik wrote in an email to the Columbia community. The announcement marks the end of a tumultuous year in the position.

"I wish risk-taking was understood as a base part of human compassion. You take the risk to save lives. Maybe that’s how you love people." Honored to interview my mentor and friend Kathy Ottersten about civil disobedience and more for @JewishCurrents

Columbia University’s “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” has been re-erected, just in time for Alumni Weekend:

"But did my students, I worried, understand that these lessons weren’t taught for the sake of memorizing history, or even for the purpose of honoring elders, but to give them skill sets and playbooks that could be acted upon for their own pressing causes?"

Beautiful essay.

"oh rafah. aching rafah. children of rafah exploded. children of rafah deafened: deafened to tank wheels. deafened to explosions gunshot music
shocking claps drones." --from Rachel Corrie's journal https://t.co/gyIt9aaooj

I think this attentive report/liberation exegesis by Hannah Gold will be a definitive text from this awful period (which feels especially awful and hopeless today)

“The youth are no longer asking. They are demanding. They are putting their own bodies on the line; they are walking into the water.”

Parting Waters: Passover at the Columbia Encampment by @hannahpgold for the Baffler

[The Baffler @thebafflermag]

Across the U.S., university students have created a sustained spectacle in support of Palestine. They do so at a scale previously unimaginable—a testament to just how many Americans now disapprove of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

[Oren Kroll-Zeldin @orenkz]

This is a brilliant essay by ⁦@hannahpgold⁩ that incorporates Jewish textual exegesis with sharp political analysis of the encampment at Columbia. Another powerful example of Jews showing up as Jews in solidarity with Palestinians. https://t.co/KPSJZYYFv8

I'm ugly sobbing my eyes out. This isn't a quick read, but if you're going to read anything today make it this.

[Victoria Brownworth @VABVOX]

This extraordinary piece by @hannahpgold, who teaches at Columbia and is also an alumna, details some of her experience at the encampment, notably at a Seder on the first night of Passover where students made 'zine Haggadah and it's so beautiful and deep I am weeping. Please read this revelatory essay.

“We do not say, ‘Let our people go.’
We say, ‘We have already gone. And your kids? They’re with us now.’” -Naomi Klein at the @jvpliveNY seder last night

[Palestinian Youth Movement @palyouthmvmt]

It's past midnight, and turnout of students and faculty has filled the entire plaza of Columbia University. An end to US complicity in the genocide of Gaza remains their focus, they insist, despite media attempts to divert attention to issues like student safety or free speech
