The world hasn't seen anything like the destruction in Gaza since Second World War.

[Rev Laskaris @REVMAXXING]

It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.
It’s a genocide, not a war.

Congratulations to those Columbia University students celebrating their "People's Graduation" at St. John's Cathedral. Try as they might, the overpaid administrators of your universities cannot force you to choose between standing up for Palestine human rights and the fruits of your academic career. Go forth, for peace and justice.

Took graduation photos a year in advance. (As of last evening, Harvard is withholding mine and @shraddha_joshi1's degrees until May of 2025, alongside 10 other graduating seniors.

Look up "Palestine exception to free speech" for more info.)

🚨🚨BREAKING: Harvard has violated its agreement with student protestors. This betrayal will PREVENT 12 STUDENTS FROM GRADUATING and place 28 on probation or suspension.

In the agreement reached to end the HOOP encampment, Garber promised to encourage Ad Boards to follow “existing precedent”. For other similar student protests, precedent is dropping charges and refraining from imposing severe consequences. This was the outcome for student organizers in the South Africa Apartheid encampment, Living Wage occupation of Mass Hall, Fossil Fuel divestment blockades, and Belinda Hall occupation.

The precedent is clear: drop the charges and do not heavily discipline students for calling for disclosure and divestment.

If the Ad Board won’t follow these precedents, they are failing to live up to Garber’s promise. If Harvard won’t live up to their promises, we see no reason to live up to ours.

My little son Abu Baker who was KILLED by the Israeli occupation..

I would have sacrificed my soul for you if I had known that it would save you from the #Israeli_bombing..

I do not forget this smile which cracks my heart whenever I look at your beautiful face..

Tonight at Columbia Jewish students led a full Shabbat service at the Gaza solidarity encampment. Minutes later Muslim students had their evening prayer service. All surrounded by love.

Please do let the world know: there are ways to live that aren’t being a paranoid bigot.

As an Arab American from Michigan & a former fellow on the 2020 Biden campaign, I am going to skip the top of the ticket in 2024.

Every election, Arab Americans are asked to save democrats in states like Michigan to elect candidates who are inclusive & “care for Arab issues.” 🧵
