We know now that what they're coming after is not one form of thinking. It's not Black history, it's not intersectionality, it's not critical race theory. They're coming after the entire infrastructure that has been created from the civil rights movement.
Kimberlé Crenshaw emphasizes why the current attacks on diversity, equity & inclusion aren’t new, “Just like the fire seemed like the devastation came from nowhere, & they might think that what we're looking at right now came from nowhere. The conditions have been set for years.”

Today, nine of our colleagues were awarded the Dan David Prize, headquartered at Tel Aviv University. Less than fifty miles south of Tel Aviv, hundreds of our colleagues and thousands of students have been killed in the Gaza Strip by the Israeli state.

Remember folks, if there is a violent crackdown of a peaceful protest at a state university, you can request records of potential administration communications with elected officials

The deafening silence from tenured faculty across the country facilities this degree of police brutality on university campuses. This moment demands a united front. There is simply no time to cower in fear. Stand in solidarity with our students now.

Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor” #Gaza #Protesters

“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?” is an all-time quote.
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst

I was recently invited to speak at a convening on Global Racisms @Columbia. In solidarity with the student protesters, it's a no for me. So proud of the Columbia students for insisting on love and humanity. @Soc4Pal @hebagowayed @sgbuggs @MichaelRMuniz

In honor of Constance Baker Motley’s myriad contributions, LDF women took a moment to share how she has inspired them in their professional paths — highlighting just how powerfully Motley’s presence is still felt decades after she completed her LDF tenure. naacpldf.org/naacp-publicati…

Let me make it plain: The murder of Israeli civilians by Hamas is horrific & unacceptable. And the murder of Palestinian civilians is a horrific & unacceptable response from Israel.   Vengeance should not be a foreign policy doctrine. Our humanity is at stake. #CeasefireNOW
