LA ❤️‍🔥
Apparently the City of LA said if you’re gonna send the military, we’re gonna give you a show. So far the guard is not down there though. It’s still LAPD vs protesters. And the protesters aren’t violent. They’re only taking up space and making noise. But that space and noise is beautiful.

More people should pause before lashing out at folks who share their hatred of this administration and ask themselves, "Am I using this person as a punching bag because I don't know how to strike back at the people responsible for all of the kidnappings, killings, deportations, and destruction?"

In one week! Be sure to register and join us for this discussion of Puerto Rican solidarity with Palestine. The proceeds from this workshop will go to support the crucial, on the ground work of the Sameer Project, so please give what you can. 🇵🇷🔥🇵🇸
Speaking of internationalist solidarity, here is a new workshop, Marisol Lebrón's "Anticolonial Resistance from Puerto Rico to Palestine," on April 10th. This workshop traces connections between anti colonial struggles in Puerto Rico and Palestine.

I think its time for an escort system. If you are a student who is active on Palestine and who is not a citizen, or if your friend is, you need to walk with them so that if this happens someone is there to advocate and witness at least.

This is vicious.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

The mandate for academics in this moment is to 1) figure out how their knowledge and skills can be made useful and applicable to the movement to end colonial violence at home and abroad and 2) move as many resources out of the university as possible

Incredible, thank you.
If you're interested in the history of international solidarity with Palestine, many sources can be found in my list of radical online (and open access) archives. Over 500 collections from around the world are listed.
