"Their crime? Allegedly writing slogans like ​“Living Wage Now” on a concrete campus building — in washable markers and chalk — during a peaceful protest almost a month earlier". #UAW2865 https://inthesetimes.com/article/university-of-california-san-diego-chalk-markers-arrests?
The University of California Is Escalating Its Crackdown on Dissent

Three academic workers at the University of California, San Diego, were arrested on felony charges of vandalism and conspiracy to commit a crime. They were using washable markers and chalk.

“BREAKING: Majorities for both unions representing the 36,000 UC graduate students on strike voted to APPROVE the tentative agreement. This should mean the strike is over. @uaw2865 members approved the deal 62% to 38%. @sruuaw approved theirs 68% to 32%.”

Eight years ago today, I went on strike as a member of the Graduate Teaching Fellows Federation. We struck against the University of Oregon. I walked this picket line for 8 days in the rain in early December and we WON 100% of our demands--an absolute total victory. Today, 8 years later, University of California is on strike. I stand with them. Fight for a fair contract! You WILL defeat them! Solidarity! #ucstrike #ucberkeley #FairUCNow #UAW2865 #UCURising

@inquiline @gleemie @HigherEdLabor parents of UC students should exert pressure on UC admin to answer the needs of its striking academic workers #FairUCNow #UCstrike #UAW2865 #UAW5810

Spent a good chunk of today talking to #uaw2865 and #sruuaw grad student workers about the #fairUCnow strike. It’s clear how much they care about their work and want to resume, but are also fed up with UC’s inability to bargain.

I can’t wait to help them in their work when the strike is over.

this is the goddamn truth. keep it shut down, get the rank and file rowdy, organize at many scales, avoid eating inwards.

University of California student workers have organised an impressive strike with 48'000 workers demanding the end of unfair labor practice. #uaw #UAW2865

Academics across the UK are going to follow next week with strikes for better pay and working conditions. @ucu
