some photos i took from emerson college’s encampment for palestine. most of these were taken only a few hours before the boston PD attacked hundreds of protestors and brutally arrested 118 students, most of whom were poc, jewish, and/or queer.

anyone who spent any amount of time in the encampment will tell you just how much it brought us all together—there was always food, music, arts and crafts, and hundreds of messages of support written in chalk.

after the BPD was done brutalising us for peacefully protesting, they power washed down the walls of the encampment—all of these messages are gone. theyre trying to erase what happened, but they’ll never truly be able to. everyone saw, and everyone will remember.

Trump Media buys a fusion energy company run by Devin Nunes and their biggest competitor has their lead scientist murdered.

When corrupt Republican criminals are elected, crimes and corruption are normalized by Republicans looking to make money for themsleves.

Corruption is normalized. Rape is normalized. Graft is normalized. Removing oversight and whistleblowers and installing unqualified loyalists is normalized. SCOTUS delivering hyper-partial decisions is normalized.

White supremacy, racism, and misogyny need corruption to survive. Trump took advantage and Republicans were complicit.

Bose Corporation has a unique majority owner, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 2011, founder Amar Bose gave MIT the majority of Bose stock as non voting shares. MIT gets an annual cash dividend from those shares to support its education and research mission.

It is vital that we keep the efforts of so many students across the United States from going to waste. We need to keep the momentum going and ensure that news of the cruelty happening to the people of Palestine is not ignored or suppressed.

Despite what many news outlets may have you believe, what is happening in our world is not minor in the slightest. It is a genocide that is happening before our eyes, day after day. Do not forget the administrative responses these colleges have given to the act of bringing attention this inhumanity. This is history happening now, and these colleges are on the wrong side of it.

These students are calling to divest college funds from Israel. Do not let the media warp their efforts and paint them as an antisemitic mob. Do not let those opposing these demonstrations hide behind claims of antisemitism to justify their actions. This is about stopping human suffering, and to believe anything different is willful ignorance.
