If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents. Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making. I urge the Mayor to reverse course.

The best speech of Biden’s campaign was in June 2020, amid the nationwide protests against the murder of George Floyd. He could’ve given a very similar speech today, if only he thought the same rights and principles applied to Palestinians. cnn.com/2020/06/02/pol…
Biden has the audacity to give that speech that protest shouldn’t lead to disorder — while planning to speak at Morehouse’s commencement— Martin Luther King Jr’s alma mater. MLK spoke about white moderates more devoted to order than to justice.
In his letter from Birmingham Jail, Martin Luther King, Jr., told us the white moderate “is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice” and said this is someone who “prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice.”
Biden is now giving a completely one-sided, dishonest speech about these campus protests. “Dissent must never lead to disorder.”
The lesson of literally almost every single successful social movement in modern US history (women’s suffrage, civil rights, LGBTQ, Act-UP, antiwar, disability rights, etc) is that dissent *must* produce disorder to provoke the kind of response that enables meaningful change.
Biden is now giving a completely one-sided, dishonest speech about these campus protests. “Dissent must never lead to disorder.”
Shameful speech by the President as campuses have unleashed police on students—he blames protesters as the problem & ignores the violence they've faced. If dissent was crucial to our democracy, you would spend more time listening to their demands than lying about their tactics.
Biden is now giving a completely one-sided, dishonest speech about these campus protests. “Dissent must never lead to disorder.”
Just an FYI for people referencing the Civil Rights Movement as the ideal and legal means of protesting, students sitting in at lunch counters, in movie theaters, in bus terminals and marching in public parks were violating laws and ordinances and agents of the state were also…
People seem to be viewing these campus protests and the outsized police reaction largely through the view of which side of the Israel / Palestine conflict they fall and honestly, that’s the wrong lens. This should be upsetting to everyone on every side.
@ukhomeoffice Completely inappropriate to broadcast these videos. These asylum seekers are being taken into custody purely for political purposes. At this point in the asylum process there is no evidence these people are "illegal" migrants. They deserve privacy and dignity. Shame on you.
It's very simple. You don't get to warn about the danger of fascism in November - which, as I have said for years, is very real! - without challenging, rather than colluding with, fascist tendencies *right now*
Dartmouth college right now. Any notion that there is anything offensive about this protest—hours old, coalition—is grotesque. Riot cops.
“If they shield Israel from international accountability yet again, then it will further underscore – in the eyes of many other countries in the Global South – that the West is engaged in this obvious game of double standards, & that will undermine the international legal order.”
My latest for @AJEnglish on why Israel is so scared of the ICC? With comments from @Alonso_GD @h_lovatt and @AdHaque110 aljazeera.com/features/2024/…
‼️ TODAY is the Global Day of Action. Arms sales and transfers to Israel MUST STOP and steps towards an immediate, sustained ceasefire must begin. End the human suffering in Gaza now! #CeasefireNOW
It turns out that if you don't call in anti-terror cops to beat, detain, and arrest your students, you can actually avoid escalating violence and chaos, and becoming headline news across the globe, and actually have a productive discussion with demonstrators on your campus.

It's #WorkersDay2024! Today & every day, workers are standing up for rights in the face of abuse in global supply chains. Unions & workers in S. Korea hold nationwide protests against labour policies & proposed below-min-wage pay for migrant workers 1/ business-humanrights.org/en/latest-news…
My heart breaks tonight, as it has many times recently. The actions of administrators at so many institutions (e.g., Emory, Columbia, & UT Austin) confirm what so many of us already knew: universities lack the courage to do hard things in hard moments. This is our real crisis.
Super interesting to note the contrast between the way Brown University and Columbia University have handled these protests. Brown agreed to a governance vote about divestment, the encampment there dissolved.
I live by Columbia. Tonight I went for a walk & saw 10+ blocks rapidly barricaded, dozens of police vehicles flying by, large groups of NYPD in riot gear gathering. I study protest in E Europe. What I saw tonight was some of the most wildly disproportionate policing I've seen 1/
