something incredibly powerful is how healing these encampments as community spaces have been for so many. I’ve seen undergraduates get tutoring from graduate students, students who are food insecure receive three meals a day, students share their art and exchange gifts…. Seeing students put aside these typical structures of power aside has been incredibly fulfilling to watch. So many different people from many different backgrounds have learned from each other and exchanged their resources. I wish student protestors all over the US the very best. There is so much selflessness and passion in these spaces

The fact that the school not only cancelled a career-spanning exhibition three years in the making by Samia Hallaby, a distinguished artist who was the first full-time woman professor at the Yale School of Art, but also suspended professor Abdulkader Sinno, who helped a Palestinian students’ union host an event by a former IDF soldier who has been publicly critical of Israel, is a total co-inky-dink and nothing at all to do with IU's systemic oppression of a voice for, or presence by, Palestinians at their institution.
Said a spokesperson for Indiana University, "Academic leaders and campus officials canceled the exhibit due to concerns about guaranteeing the integrity of the exhibit for its duration."
Wow, that is just so considerate of IU.
Way to put your school on the map, Indiana!
