The student intifada was an obvious motivator for this compact. Vaguely addressing academic repression without acknowledging this, and without recognizing the complicity of US science in the genocide, is a road to nowhere.

The NEA news had me feeling more hopeful about US teacher's unions than i have in a long time, many thanks to the AFT and Randi for crushing my optimism once again

SCOOP—Emails obtained by @zeteo.com show Mahmoud Khalil reached out for help from the Columbia administration *one day before* ICE detained him.

He said he couldn't sleep from threats he was receiving.
He even wrote that he feared ICE "might come to my home."

"I haven’t been able to sleep, fearing that ICE or a dangerous individual might come to my home. I urge you to intervene and provide the necessary protections to prevent further harm."

Khalil was detained Saturday night from his New York apartment building
NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.

Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.

His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

With all due respect, US science and US-led international institutions have led to enough destruction and lined enough profiteer pockets out of the Global South. A lesson for US scientists in the Trump regime should be one of humility first, reconstruction and resistance second, not neocon attitudes
