Solidarity with academic workers striking at University of California, Santa Cruz against police repression of campus Gaza protests! And with the 48,000 academic workers, at 11 UC campuses, who have just authorized a statewide strike vote.
Meanwhile the UC has filed an unfair labor practices complaint with the NLRB, claiming it's unlawful to strike over issues that aren't "labor related." But how is it not "labor related" when the UC is firing and disciplining teachers for expressing solidarity with Palestine? How is it not "labor related" when they're using the police to create a violent and disruptive environment in their workplaces?
@MikeDunnAuthor Probably nothing provides any better gauge of a nation's progress into #fascism than the reaction of the major institutions of HEd to truly human 1st A right of expression that does not tow the, essentially, religious doctrine.
