It’s really no surprise that a community that is so interconnected, saw the devastation of COVID-19, and cares for one another is more willing to get a vaccine and CONTINUE to wear masks. And in turn we are doing better than compared to the rest of Texas and the U.S.
Wasting taxpayer dollars investigating a development that hasn’t even broken ground or signed a single contract is insane. Meanwhile, our grid is failing and schools are underfunded. Welcome to Texas, where bigotry is more urgent than basic infrastructure!
BREAKING: @UTAustin has suspended its flag requirements effective immediately, including for students with incomplete requirements, David Bout, Interim Vice President and Provost announced.

the fact the US used the full force of the federal government to eliminate the Black Panthers while the KKK is still running around tells you a lot about this country

Breaking: Berkeley now has a Gaza solidarity encampment! They are the 12th university to establish one, and the protest movement now spans the entire country.
make no mistake: UT Austin + UTPD + state troopers are responding specifically because they’re in solidarity with Palestine not because they’re simply demonstrating
old enough to remember when patriot front marched onto campus with torches and were quietly asked to leave
we are unarmed, we are fighting for the end of the Palestinian genocide.
cops are ARMED - using state-sanctioned violence, using their weapons, using their HORSES to attack peaceful protestors. Shame on you @UTAustin.
Disclose. Divest. We will not stop. We will not rest
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
@susethmunoz This is neoliberal defunding of schools and far school censorship joining each other as one project. They both agree: the poor have no right to an education. Either they survive on their own, or they go to jail.
BREAKING: Dozens of striking hotel housekeepers rally to call on @taylorswift13 to support their fight for a wage that enables them to afford to live in Los Angeles.
