Yesterday, while protesters were marching around the city, a Bloomington Police department 'Community Service Specialist' vehicle repeatedly ran into protesters to move them out of the way.

They hit me multiple times! Unhinged behavior.

Riot cops for student in tents are not about free speech, they are about political repression. If you are worried about teaching sociology or feminist theory in the classroom you should be at the front lines of fighting this.

I just really want all academics to know that if you are not willing to stand up against militarized physical violences against your students and colleagues, you will not be willing or able to stand up against attacks on tenure and other encroachments to academic freedom

Someone at the IU encampment reads off a list of enumerated demands over the megaphone every day. Sometimes multiple times a day

Reuven Kahane—yes, related to that Kahane—tried to murder Columbia students with his car today. Wonder if that’ll receive the same amount of press attention as the “stabbed in the eye” hoax

The most anti-encampment guy at IU is a German philosemite who does shoddy social media research to justify Islamophobia. Just an incredible character. Blessed to have his enmity

Important 🧵 collecting the growing condemnations of the police-inflicted, administration-endorsed violence against UVA students and faculty members at the encampment on Saturday

Something made crystal clear to me as my students were beaten is that there are two sides to fascism. The first takes pleasure in exclusion - racism, xenophobia, etc. But the other side is more intimate. It's about hating 'your own' youth. It's about eating your own children.
