#student-protests — Public Fediverse posts

"Since the beginning of world-wide #campusProtests in the wake of October 7, 2023, there has been a tremendous upswell of organizing and support for #PalestinianLiberation and #activism against #USmilitarism. In response, a wave of #repression against students, staff and faculty on campus began in 2023 and accelerated after Donald Trump took office."

"The issue takes stock of #higherEducation following this inflection point..."

As more universities agree to immigration enforcement on campus, students are fighting back.
Of the colleges that have entered into partnerships with ICE and CBP since last year, only St. John’s University in New York has backed out

Counterterrorism Fusion Centers were ostensibly created to fight "terrorism," but were promptly turned against the populace. This reveals a central purpose of the so-called War on Terror: the social control of the people.

"Weaponized allegations of antisemitism driven by pro-Israel groups have been central to attacks on #campusSpeech—including the Trump administration’s brazen war on #higherEducation—over the past two years, according to a new report jointly published today by the American Association of University Professors and the Middle East Studies Association."

"When two young men entered his small print shop in Rabat on October 4 with a 40 dirham (about $4) work order, Ayoub didn’t imagine that the simple job would land him in prison. Barely an hour later, the 34-year-old biology graduate had just finished printing several football shirts with the requested designs featuring the logo of the “Gen Z 212” movement—a reference to Morocco’s international dialing code—and the words “Free Palestine,” when two police officers walked in.

Within 48 hours, Ayoub was behind bars in Arjat Prison, charged with “participating in incitement to commit crimes”—an offense carrying up to five years imprisonment. Over a month later, he remains in prison. Ayoub’s case is emblematic of an unprecedented government crackdown that has swept Morocco since late September, when youth-led, anti-corruption protests demanding improvements in healthcare and education erupted nationwide.

The mass demonstrations that ignited in more than a dozen cities across Morocco in late September have decried the government’s underfunding of schools and hospitals amid plans to spend more than $5 billion on stadiums and infrastructure as the country gears up to co-host the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The protests against government spending priorities have used the gaming chat app Discord and other online platforms to call for mass mobilizations. Police have responded with tear gas, batons, and mass arrests."

Norman Finkelstein highlights a crucial legal victory: The U.S. Supreme Court protects the right to advocate government overthrow and burn the flag.

So what about students chanting "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free"?

A Reagan-appointed judge just answered.

Tokyo’s first subways were but a dream on a drawing board in October 1925. Also, a quarter of a century later in October 1950, nearly 150 students were arrested for a violent protest at Waseda University. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/01/japan/history/japan-nobel-chemistry-subway-waseda-student-protest-1925-1950-1975-2000/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #history #subway #tokyometro #infrastructure #tokyometropolitanassembly #wasedauniversity #students #studentprotests #lowerhouse #inflation #nobelprize #chemistry #hidekishirakawa
