AnarchoNinaAnalyzesShoutout to all the people who like to argue with me that we're not living in a fascist police state already:

Short story here is 13 police officers raid the homes of pro-Palestinian student protesters from a group the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) banned from campus, at 6AM. Pointed guns at people's heads, refused to show a warrant, refused to identify the officers involved.
Folks, these are students, not a fucking Al Qaeda cell. This is an Ivy League school; theoretically the students at Penn are the FUTURE LEADERS of American society. We are ALREADY through the looking glass; this shit is not *coming* it's already here.
PS - when you folks get mad at me for trying to raise awareness, boost solidarity, and pitch for organizing while refusing to write you a step-by-step pamphlet for "how to revolution" you do realize that I KNOW this is the police state we live in and that's part of why right? Cause sometimes I don't think you understand what fucking time it really is.

Alx 🐈I'm really curious about @RadicalAnthro tonight focusing on the #StudentMovements for #Palestine. I wonder if there will be a discussion on what it means to fight the empire in the heart of the empire.

The Society for Cultural Anthropology has published a new online issue dedicated to the student movement for Palestine, focusing on the camp protest.
Worth of note:
"Three co-editors put this special issue together. Two remain anonymous due to the unevenly distributed repression that places them at greater risk."

somcakUpdate from The Ohio State University: They cleared the quad this morning. By the time I arrived at work at 8 am EDT, the quad was cleared of students, the walking paths are guarded by campus police and security. there are 3 trailers of mobile police cameras set up. The snipers are gone.
Campus is eerily quite. It is the last day of finals, so some of that is to be expected, but still, after yesterday, it's eerie.
PhoenixSerenityFrom the #AntiWar rallies of the #Vietnam era to the #CivilRights sit-ins, and now to the contemporary marches for #Palestinian rights, it’s clear that #students have been — and continue to be — powerful #catalysts for major shifts in society.
#StudentActivism is often chaotic, but always driven by passion, and essential. Looking back at the #history of #StudentMovements, it’s evident that when students raise their voices, they lay the foundation for future #change.
