Today in Labor History May 4, 1970: Ohio National Guards murdered four students at Kent State University. They also injured nine others, including one who was permanently paralyzed. During the massacre, they fired 67 rounds in 13 seconds at the unarmed crowd. The students were protesting the U.S. invasion of Cambodia. With the current wave of student protests against the Israeli genocide in Gaza, the government’s response is looking sickeningly similar to its response to student protests in the early 70s: Violent repression, use of chemical agents, snipers on rooftops. If the vitriolic rhetoric of politicians and pundits continues, another student massacre seems imminent.

“Cops raided Berkeley's occupation for South African divestment in April 1985, arresting 156. #Students reoccupied and declared a strike. 10,000 joined. Occupations started again in the fall. The camp was raided and rebuilt again until they won. This isn't over. It's barely begun.” #police

Nine photojournalists from across the US tell the stories behind their most powerful shots, as pro-Palestinian protesters face police crackdownsGail Fletcher (The Guardian)
Since October 7th, I've joined protests, fundraising events for Gaza, and students on university campuses.
As a Jew and someone who has a ton of friends and family in Israel, I want to share some thoughts on claims of antisemitism in student encampments and the broader Palestinian solidarity movement:

USC Grad Student Union Files Unfair Labor Practice Charge Against University over Arrests
As protests continue on campuses across North America, we go to the University of Southern California, where the union representing about 3,000 graduate student workers at USC has filed an unfair labor practice charge against the school to end campus…Democracy Now!
University of #Connecticut injured #disabled student protester:
“I have disabled #students participating in the peaceful encampment/protests #UConn. When cops arrived they put hands on one of my disabled students & dislocated their shoulder. This student is still there, but injured. If UConn says there are no injuries, that is a lie …. this student wants this known and I am sharing with permission”
