For those of us who come from legacies of dictatorships—-US-supported dictators trained in school of Americas— this is eerily familiar and also so scary as we know worse yet to come.
From this legacy we also know resistance always wins but requires all of us. #resist
What are you doing to protect our immigrant communities from this terror?
Elites and institutions have not “collapsed.” They have not “changed their tunes.” They have not “failed.” They are not “cowards.”
They were and are simply been focused only on their own self-preservation and profit.
Nothing has changed. They simply made a cost benefit analysis, and fascism wins.
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.
These attacks on birthright citizenship are racist and disturbing. Birthright is a foundational principle of the United States ratified by the passage of the 14th Amendment to recognize Black people as full humans. Take it away and we risk losing basic humanity. #resist
The White House’s “ASMR” video showcasing the shackling and deportation of migrants is a grotesque display of dehumanization. This administration’s perverse attempt to frame human suffering as soothing reflects a deeply disturbing and inhumane mindset. Reminder: The only felon is the President.
If I were in charge of #ACPA25 I would declare a state of emergency for #education and use the conference as a working meeting. This goes for any/all educational conferences forward until the attacks on higher ed stop. This is NOT business as usual and we have to stop treating it as such.
📣 DEAR COLLEAGUE LETTERS ARE NON-BINDING GUIDANCE LETTERS.
You cannot change what is considered illegal discrimination under federal law through non binding guidance.
The trifecta of capitalism. White supremacy and patriarchy governing our country. First order of business: get rid of anything that might allow Black and brown folx to have any power.
Students & educators: Protest is powerful, but be strategic. Avoid wearing anything that links you to your school or workplace—retaliation is real. This isn’t panic—it’s a reminder to organize smartly. Plan, protect yourselves, and resist with intention and care. 🌈🎓
Yes that would be great! Thank you.
Hi folx’s! My name is Daisy and I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Higher Education at Pennsylvania State University. My research interests lay in the intersections of law, institutional policies, Women of Color faculty and Chicana feminism. I hope to continue to connect with folxs!
