YOUR #PARIS2024 GOLD MEDALISTS 🇺🇸🥇

Wow. A restaurant in Chicago O’Hare, one of the biggest airports in the world, banned an infectious disease doctor from entering because they were wearing a mask. This is unacceptable.

Me, in my head, every time I hear or read the phrase "land grant institution" used only as a reference to our institution's noble public mission.

#USA #Universities #HigherEd #Palestine #Activism #Gaza #HumanRights #Genocide #Israel: "The interviews excerpted below, made between late April and mid-May 2024, give us a sense of what has moved students to protest across US universities. With no claim of representativity, either of the student movement as a whole or even the particular encampments, the answers draw the contours of a certain emerging sensibility with its dissonances, contradictions, and frailties. We contacted graduate and undergraduate student organisers and non-university participants in the following nine encampments across the US: Harvard, Northwestern, Chicago, CUNY, Texas, UMass, Princeton, Columbia, and UCLA. We distributed nine questions, later edited down to seven, from which we have selected responses below. This collective interview will be published in Arabic in Megaphone and in English in Endnotes, and the full interview transcripts can be downloaded here." https://endnotes.org.uk/posts/the-encampments-for-gaza
