Clear action of white supremacy, plain and simple:

2 Pac Attacking Trump: We miss you Pac 

It bears repeating: this is flagrantly illegal

Eliminating huge swaths of degrees is disastrous for students and communities. SB1 and its backing legislators - and our universities who are leaping to obey its spirit - are wreaking havoc for Ohio.

Historically, bigots have often tried to define who counts a "man" or "woman" or "other" As part of the OG "others" group, I can see what they are trying to do with the trans people, and it is wrong

Great branding, as they like to say, of Ohio State:

Keep an eye on Ohio State University. There is no major university that is more pro-authoritarianism under its current leadership than Ohio State under its current president Ted Carter. And arguably no school other than Columbia has done more to capitulate to authoritarianism.

OSU is shameless

YES TO THIS!!! This is what I want to see happening at scale. Every single community can do this for its folks. More of this by the millions. This should be regular and common knowledge.

NEWS: It began with Mahmoud Khalil. Now the Trump admin is trying to deport *hundreds* of students by vaguely saying they have criminal records—making them guess why. Some have traffic violations. Some didn't even commit a crime. One's "criminal record"? Apparently being a domestic violence victim.

If we can't take simple actions, we will not take hard ones.

world historic levels of evil

War criminal prime minister of #ApartheidIsrael is in town urging the USA to go to war with #Iran for the #Zionists. Remember how he lied us into war with #Iraq? He lied - a million people died! Call the Congressional switchboard (202) 224-3121 and tell them #NoWarOnIran #NoWarForZionism

Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip killed at least 32 people, including over a dozen women and children, local health officials said Sunday, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu headed to the United States to meet with President Donald Trump about the war.

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

We must stand up for all of our students. The federal government's targeting & treatment of international students is completely unacceptable. International students are core members of the Buckeye community and we won’t be silent as they are scapegoated in this way www.dispatch.com/story/news/e...

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

Proud to be a part of the Ohio state university’s chapter of Faculty & Staff for Justice in Palestine.

Cory, speak on Palestine.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

New: Reps. Pramila Jayapal and Rashida Tlaib are leading new Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block the sale of specific offensive weapons to Israel. Since the Trump-Vance administration announced new sales, Israel broke the ceasefire and has killed hundreds of Palestinians.

And yet our national security is fine on Signal.

NYU canceled a planned speech by the former president of Doctors Without Borders because she planned to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and cuts to US AID. This is what actual campus censorship looks like.

Hey, Dems in Congress, this is how it's done. Bernie's master class in reaching the people. 👇👇👇 youtube.com/shorts/xNyZ3...

Rumeysa Ozturk was snatched off the street by goons wearing masks. While it’s important to record these incidents, it’s *more* important to intervene!

This is how Israeli settlers and soldiers – supported by the entire Republican party & much of the Democratic party – is responding to a movie about peace:

Protest NOW

The genocide is in its final stage.

#StandWithYemen #StandWithPalestine #DismantleApartheidIsrael #FreePalestine

Imagine bombing the Vatican at Easter. Imagine bombing churches on Christmas. Now watch Israel bomb Gaza mercilessly during Ramadan. Fueled by the USA.

Connect the dots to dismantling all public education and universities.

Belgrade yesterday: x.com/n1srbija/sta...

Led by students!!! (Connect the dots, please, as the suppression of protest and abduction of student protesters well underway in US.) Huge news in Hungary!! www.kyivpost.com/post/49002

@theguardian.com why no reporting on protests in Budapest?!?

Universities need to stand together. Silence combined with preemptive concessions has already been revealed to be an exceedingly ineffective strategy. Speak up. "In the absence of a countervailing message, a one-sided debate will powerfully shape public opinion." www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...
