We don't have to go back to the 60s to remember the principled protest tradition at Columbia... Many of us were part of another "divest" movement in the 80s that was powerful and prescient. Love & solidarity to the 2024 freedom fighters https://t.co/5Aa6I0jQXF

Let’s be real. This is an extension of what happened to me at UNC, and it is a glimpse into the future to come. Academic freedom is under attack. Racial justice programs are under attack. Black women will be made to pay. Our so-called allies too often lack any real courage.

[Marc Lamont Hill @marclamonthill]

So many university academics who insist upon doing performative, virtue signaling “land acknowledgements” at every public event are eerily silent as real liberation struggles are happening. Guess decolonization really is a metaphor for some folk…

Diversity, equity, and inclusion offices have been part of public universities for years, but now state lawmakers are close to removing DEI offices and policies in the final days of the 2023 Texas legislative session.
