  6. @8 Interesting, and more than a coincidence.

    We know the Roman government did not worship Jesus (they killed him), and neither do they worship Him today. So who do they worship? Who is Columbia?

  7. "We turn now to new revelations from a former Justice Department attorney who’s filed a whistleblower complaint claiming that the Trump administration task force charged with investigating antisemitism pushed universities into massive settlements despite turning up little to no evidence of antisemitism on campus.

    Haley Van Erem, a former career attorney in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, said in her complaint that the government’s probes into schools like Harvard, Brown and Columbia were, quote, “an unlawful process designed to achieve predetermined political goals.”

    Brown University settled for $50 million. Columbia settled for $200 million. Harvard refused to settle, and a judge threw out a case against the university.

    Democratic Representative Jamie Raskin, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, has launched a probe into the whistleblower allegations. He wrote in a statement, quote, “It has been apparent that its investigations have been structured deliberately to harass and intimidate rather than protect anyone from discrimination.”"

  9. Did US president Barack Obama go to college, or not?

    This is a strange-sounding testimony, but could be true. This man says he went to Columbia University in the same year that Obama supposedly also studied there and with the same major. But he has no memory of seeing Barack Obama at #Columbia University.

    TITLE: Whistleblower Alleges White House Improperly Targeted Top Universities

    Source: CBS News - U.S. News

    The Trump administration pressured career civil rights attorneys to investigate allegations of antisemitism at the university campuses of Harvard, Columbia, and Brown even though there was no factual or legal basis to do so, according to a former Justice Department attorney. Veteran civil rights lawyer Haley Van Erem made this allegation as part of a whistleblower complaint made public on Tuesday by Maryland Representative Jamie Raskin.

  13. Dear English speaking people.

    The country in South America is called Colombia, not Columbia.

    Both names come from the same guy and the same genocide era, but the spelling is different.

  22. Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Drum Suite, 1957 on Columbia

    Art Blakey is joined here (at least on the A-side) by Cuban drummers Candido and Sabu, with Ray Bryant, Oscar Pettiford, and Charles Wright. On the B side, Jackie McLean, Spanky DeBrest, Sam Dockery, and Bill Hardman join as the Jazz Messengers.

    My copy—via private sale—is a 1950s Columbia Hollywood plant pressing with the 6-eye label. The artist is credited as “The Art Blakey Percussion Ensemble” on both labels but the cover credits the B side to the Jazz Messengers.

    “... Several things stand out:
    1) the massive flow of the mighty Mississippi and Columbia River systems
    2) the paucity of major rivers in the western US, especially the southwestern US, where the only major rivers are the seriously over-tapped Colorado and Rio Grande Rivers
    3) the local importance of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers in California, which serve the state’s cities and agricultural regions…”

  25. Hype for the Future 99E: The Iconic Cumberlands

    Introduction The region of the Cumberlands in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, south of the Inner and Outer Bluegrass regions, is largely determined by the proximity to the upper reaches of the Cumberland River and to Lake Cumberland proper. Notable Locales Within the general region associated with the Cumberland River, including the Outer Bluegrass and Pennyroyal (Pennyrile) regions of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, is largely the Daniel Boone National Forest. However, outside the Daniel […]

    Introduction Essex County, often recorded as home to fewer than six thousand permanent residents, often serves the role of the smallest county by population in not just the State of Vermont, but the entirety of the region commonly known as New England. Outside the contexts of Vermont and the larger scope of New England, the county is also home to numerous attractions related to the tourist draw to the county and particularly toward the Burke Mountain ski area. While the northern portion of […]

  27. Bob Dylan, Street-Legal, 1978 on Columbia

    This was Dylan’s 18th studio LP, made with a band that included Jerry Scheff, Ian Wallace, Alan Pasqua, Billy Cross, Steven Soles, Steve Douglas, and David Mansfield – many of whom were in the Rolling Thunder Revue. (David Mansfield also went on to be part of The Range).

    Not as many absolutely central Dylan songs here, but I do love “Is Your Love In Vain?” and “Señor (Tales of Yankee Power).”

    My copy—via a record fair at Mill No 5 in Lowell MA—is a 1978 pressing from Columbia’s Santa Maria plant. It’s written as “Street Legal” (no hyphen) on the labels but “Street-Legal” on the cover and spine.

  29. Rashid Khalidi on Genocide Complicity, From Columbia to the White House

    Prominent Palestinian historian Rashid Khalidi discusses the anti-colonial struggle against Israel, #US and European complicity in the genocide and why he won't teach at Columbia in the fall.

    from #DropSiteNews
    Aug 05, 2025

    On this week’s Drop Site News livestream, Sharif Abdel Kouddous speaks with prominent Palestinian scholar and historian #RashidKhalidi, a professor emeritus at Columbia U. and the author of "The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine.”

    Khalidi recently published an article in the #Guardian newspaper explaining why he is withdrawing from teaching a fall course at Columbia. This comes after #Columbia agreed to pay a $200 million settlement to the #Trump administration after it accused the university of failing to protect Jewish students during campus protests against #Israel’s genocidal assault on #Gaza...

  30. Prominent historian cancels course at Columbia University over Trump deal

    #RashidKhalidi, in open letter published by #Guardian, accuses university of ‘capitulating’ with $200m settlement

    from #TheGuardian
    Dani Anguiano
    Fri 1 Aug 2025 06.00 EDT

    “Although I have retired, I was scheduled to teach a large lecture course on this topic in the fall as a “special lecturer” but I cannot do so under the conditions #Columbia has accepted by capitulating to the #Trump administration in June,” Khalidi wrote.

    Columbia announced last week that it would pay more than $200m in a settlement with the federal government after the White House claimed the university failed to adequately address alleged antisemitism on campus amid protests over the #Israel-#Gaza war, and threatened to pull significant funding.
