One could argue that the university and their donors were also practicing their first amendment freedom of association.
She was free to say whatever she wanted , but they were also free to disassociate from her afterwards. Looks like the constitution is working just fine
a lot of bytch ass negros on this site. more worried about “fumbling the bag” than standing up for what’s right.
it’s twisted.
I agree with all of you, and not surprised by the people who disagree. There's a strong right-wing tendency to throw on the cape for those who protect oppressors and blame the victims in cases like this.
When SJWing goes wrong
always trying to be "allies of the oppressed"...meanwhile she'd have to wear a scarf and...man...don't get me started
Money. Power. Respect
Why would her random ass need to challenge power?this is absolute idiocy on her part. Who was asking her to challenge anything?
The most ridiculous part is that posters like @Absolut are the type who probably talk shyt about "cancel culture", but then turn around and victim blame when it's protectors of the powerful doing the cancelling.
Two warring sides that have done nothing since day one but show contempt, abuse and hostility towards Blacks till this day..two sides that occupied Black areas of the middle east through genocide and displacement. Neither side occupied that area originally and they're both invaders.
Honestly, I really don't care for either the Arabs or Israelis knowing how they feel about Blacks and how they've acted towars us.
It's just a matter of deciding whom I despise more and I can't separate them

This is like the Matryoshka doll of coli ignorance. Every layer of ignorance you peel back from this argument, you realize it's just another layer of ignorance underneath.
And this is the 2nd time in two days I've had to say that to you after that whole threat you made about China invading the USA.

Maybe you can't decide who you despise more because they are technically...cousins.
These negroes are embarrassing man.
People in here talking bout she standing on her principles. What principles? Calling out injustices that has nothing to do with you or your people, or your country.
Being compelled to speak on something without regard to the complexities of both sides, drawing lines where your pen has no might, on a page owned by those you're blaming, is sheer stupidity.
An education of that magnitude, one would think, takes a good amount of critical thinking.
I'm not saying that I don't understand or sympathize with Palestinians plight, but I don't f**k with Hamas.
If you gon say something, condemn the reckless terror attack by Hamas, the inhumane response by Israel, promote peace in the region, safety for civilians, and a solution that is mutually beneficial for both parties.
If you really that concerned, play the long game. Get your status up at one of THEIR law firms, open your own international practice and provide legal assistance to the Palestinian people. Too many common sense ways to go about this.

Very first line and you already killed the idea that you know what "principles" are.
Everyone says that bullshyt as a way to justify their complicity and 99.999% of the time it doesn't work. People who go into those places get sucked into the money and the status and within a few months are just willing co-collaborators of the same bullshyt they used to claim they hate.
George Monbiot said it best, about this claim that you can start your true mission by chasing status first:
Career Advice
Every week, sometimes every day, someone writes to me asking for advice about the career they should take. I can’t, unfortunately, respond to them all, so I thought I should try to formulate some general guidelines, which I hope people will be able to adapt to their own circumstances. This...

Why don't so many people understand Palestine is not Hamas? Most Palestinians are not in Gaza. Hamas has not been a progressive actor for the Palestinian cause and are by their own admission opposed to most negotiated solutions. They, like far right Israelis, opposed the Oslo Accords. People shoot themselves in the foot and hurt Palestinians by celebrating what they just did.
This. People think you either have to assimilate or rebel but it can be a process.
I agree and disagree. I agree it is a lie and futile to think you will change these institutions from the inside but to act like they can't be a stepping stone to meaningful work is not true.
Most people get sucked into the money and status because their values were never what they claimed. I worked in corporate (no longer) and saw it too but what I saw was the true idealists get the picture, learn what they can, stack bread and move on with the knowledge and resume.
The others that sucummb were usually malleable to begin with. They were conscious and activist in school bc it was cool and what others did. Now they work they do what others think is cool again in living beyond their means and drowning in debt for an image. In the end they didn't change, just found a new crowd.
Btw, you should read the book Disciplined Minds which does a deep dive on this topic from both the grad school and work world. Particularly the cooling out effect of co-opting resistance.

The students made statements or the groups? Were they signatories or just happened to be members?
If the students don't have a direct statement or signature this is bullshyt. Not even proximal cause. If they are trying to freeze out by affiliation they need to get called out for real.
