Reggie Dillard is FREE and Elkhart County’s most recent exoneree!! It was a perfect day celebrating this man and his freedom (aside from missing @ElliotSlosar, whose years of work led to this moment)

Justice in Elkhart County!! Today, at the close of an evidentiary hearing, our client Reginald Dillard’s 2000 murder conviction was vacated! Reggie has spent 27 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit @ElliotSlosar @NDLawEJC

“There are no universities left in Gaza. At Howard, we have $90M contract w/Dept. of Defense. As students across the DMV, we do not support campuses, which are supposed to be spaces of learning, to have relationships w/these genocidal entities” Howard U. students at GWU Protest

This would be the day that I’d lose my job. No way in hell am I escorting snipers to the roof of a STUDENT UNION…PERIODT!
IU Admin escort snipers on day three of Gaza encampment. The encampment is full of students, faculty, and community members including young children.

Incredibly brave testimony from IU Associate Dean for Graduate Education Elizabeth Dunn: Whitten's repression has broken "the fundamental link between us and our students." "There's a high likelihood I'll be fired today."

Hundreds of faculty protesting outside the admin building. Snipers and police assaults will not be tolerated. Whitten will fall.

Shame on you @IUBloomington, this makes me embarrassed to be an alum! What in the actual f*%k was this snipper on top of the STUDENT UNION sent there to do?! #Disgusted
Sniper on the roof of the IMU. Absolutely unhinged response to a nonviolent encampment by a murderous and paranoid police state.

This study examined how Black queer men in college conceptualized gender and sexuality as they navigated hegemonic and toxic forms of masculinity.

We mobilized queer of color critique to analyze data from a multi-year critical ethnographic study to to unearth the worldmaking practices that BQM engage to dislodge and disrupt the omnipresent gender norms they faced within postsecondary contexts.
