I'm starting a 🧵 of stories of victims of the coup that will allow us to see the human cost of this fascist regime. Would welcome additions.
I do believe that humans need to be able to mourn a single life in order to grasp the magnitude of what is happening.
May work into my curriculum. May not.

Paul Weiss and Columbia are taking exactly the wrong actions in acceding to Trump, and they are among the entities most well-positioned to fight back.
These are legacy-shaming decisions by the leadership of both, and those far less powerful will now, and surely in short order, pay the price.

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media.
But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.
