This should be national news, if only our media had a minimum of backbone.

On the same weekend that white supremacists gathered downtown, a father of three from Rwanda who “contributed to countless projects aimed at empowering, educating, and uplifting the community” was shot dead by the Hamilton police. thespec.com/news/crime/fat…

You may have seen that @YUFAyorku is trying to resist “restructuring” in its current bargaining with the Employer. Read this thread to find out why restructuring is an issue we should all care about. 👀🧵

York University needs to manage its finances better so it does not have to resort to manufacturing crises and blaming employees for its irresponsible and continuing over-spending on unplanned capital projects and exorbitant admin salaries. @OntarioAuditor #EnoughIsEnough #Audit

The York University admin keeps using the same false narratives, misinformation, and policing against workers and students. Stand with @YUFAyorku to say enough is enough. ✊

Moments ago, an injunction requiring the dismantling of a pro-Palestine encampment came into effect at the University of Toronto. This is my on-the-ground report from the campus of the university. @UofT @UofTLaw @TheVarsity #Gaza #genocide #Palestine #Toronto #onpoli


Important thread below, highlighting different aspects of the ruling and how it makes more obvious than ever the moral bankruptcy of @UofT Its smear campaign against the students was not successful and ultimately it exposed @UofT for what it is: a colonial institution.

By now you’ve probably heard that Justice Markus Koehnen ordered protesters to leave the UofT encampment by 6 o’clock tonight. We want to highlight a few important points from his decision🧵(1/13)

“There was considerable controversy over certain slogans used at the encampment such as “From the River to the Sea, Palestine shall be Free" ... The record does not establish a strong prima facie case to demonstrate that the slogans are antisemitic." - Ruling


elena basile Reposted

"...The encampment itself has people of various backgrounds including Muslims and Jews. It conducts weekly Shabbats involving Jews and Muslims. Both Jewish and Muslim members of the encampment have testified about its inclusive, peaceful nature.” - Ruling


elena basile Reposted

“[UofT] has not made out a strong ... case to show that the encampment is antisemitic. Although there have clearly been instances of antisemitic hate speech outside... there is no evidence that the named respondents or encampment occupants are associated with any of those..."
