I’m sorry Kroger is doing what now

What you allow Israel to do to other people will set a precedent of what can be done to you. Remember that.

Words can't capture aspects of the horror of Palestinian life during the current starvation campaign by Isr. Nor do words alone adequately provide a vision for a better future for Palestinians & the world.

Good news for NYC

[Asad🗽🍎 @AsadFromNYC]

NICE: “After months of public outcry and pressure from the City Council, New York City’s libraries are poised to have their budgets fully restored so that branches may resume seven-day-a-week service, including Sundays.” https://t.co/QQnSfBvBNa

I love these Waffle House workers.

[Fight for a Union @FightForAUnion]

BREAKING: @WaffleHouse announces the “single largest additional investment” of raises in the company’s 68-year history after workers strike, deliver 13K petitions to HQ, and take collective action demanding the restaurant improve working conditions.

And yet we are told we can’t have paper towels in the bathrooms on my campus because there is no money.

[Melanie Marich @marichreports]

The CUNY Board of Trustees bypassed normal procedures to okay a $4m contract for a security company that describes student protesters as “engaged in guerrilla warfare.”

@cityascanvass and I are back at it again, this time for @HellGateNY!

@FoodGeog Maybe someone has a good rec? @AlexHeffron20

@CUNY is constantly telling faculty we are broke. But they can pull money out of thin air for more cops on campus in response to a student protest where the only violence was administrators sending in the NYPD to beat people up?! Outrageous. @PSC_CUNY @psc_qc

[maggie dickinson @mag2d2]

That’s hilarious! These young people are radicalizing their faculty by showing us just how repressive and undemocratic these institutions we work for are!

[katie honan @katie_honan]

The mayor has moved on from saying "outside agitators" infiltrated Columbia's protests to saying there could be a bad professor out there "radicalizing" students.

[Luca Saeed @cityascanvass]

Faculty have formed a human barrier between their CUNY students and campus police.

[maggie dickinson @mag2d2]

Reagan also made college students ineligible for food stamps - another way to 'make them pay' - that hit poor and working class students hard (and still does).

[American Association of University Professors @AAUP]

It’s worth reminding those critical of the student protests raging across the US: Gaza no longer has universities. Every single university in Gaza has been bombed into oblivion. Hundreds of academics, scholars, professors, & students have been killed since Oct. 7. #scholasticide

May these NYU faculty be a model for all of us who teach

[Gwynne Hogan @gwynnefitz.bsky.social @GwynneFitz]

arrests begin, starting with line of faculty who had been protecting students

[Union of Southern Service Workers @RaiseUptheSouth]

TODAY: @WaffleHouse workers are on STRIKE in Atlanta to demand an end to their mandatory meal deduction policy. Deducting $3 from our pay every shift, regardless of whether we eat, is unjust. We are calling on @USDOL to investigate. #UnionsForAll

@psc_qc

[Jeanne Theoharis @JeanneTheoharis]

Please amplify: @CUNY Admin is proposing changes to CUNY's bylaws that would take control for course scheduling & faculty hiring away from depts & chairs to administration. Corporatizing & anti-intellectual, it treats our students' education as fungible & subject to 'demand.'
