My upcoming course for activists. I’d really appreciate all efforts to get the word out. I really want those who participate to reflect the workers and communities fighting back in this city.

A notice of motion submitted today by ⁦⁦@UofT⁩ wants a court to authorize the ⁦@TPSOperations⁩, the Ontario Provincial Police and “any other police” to “arrest and remove persons, objects and structures” in the pro-Palestinian protest camp. https://t.co/wYhluoWuDd

A powerful statement.

“The  Association of Part-time Undergraduate Students (APUS), University of Toronto Graduate Students’ Union (UTGSU), University of Toronto Mississauga Students’ Union (UTMSU) and Scarborough Campus Students’ Union (SCSU), who represent over 100,000 students across the University of Toronto stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people and their right to self-determination. We reaffirm our solidarity with the student encampment who have mobilized in support of Palestinians experiencing an ongoing genocide, occupation and settler-colonialism with direct demands. As students’ unions within the global student movement, we unequivocally stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples from Turtle Island to Palestine.”

Open letter to boycott and call for the censure of UCalgary. "Academic institutions must be places that encourage dialogue in the pursuit of understanding and knowledge. There is no justification for police crackdowns on peaceful assemblies on campus.”
