And y'all go after a Brown Algerian woman bc she (fairly) beat a European opponent? I expect this after Caster Semenya. But the fact that the two being attacked are racialized, y'all just be telling on yourselves.

Women in sport see you. Intersex women. Hijab-wearing women. Trans women. Women who have survived genocide, and abuse. Marginalized women. Don't pretend to care about women when what you say really means: "Let's protect white and feminine types of women and sport".

Thanks @DesmondCole for live streaming and recording this important and powerful media conference! Just like @PrideToronto the University of Toronto refuses to recognize its complicity with Israeli apartheid and genocide. The struggle continues!

@occupyuoft @UofT As the brave students said in the @occupyuoft press conference yesterday, the protest does not stop until their demands are met. #Disclose #Divest #CutTies #CeasefireNow #NoPrideInGenocide 🫒🍉🇵🇸

And how in the coming years the archives of @occupyuoft, the legal archives of the injunction ruling, and even @UofT’s own archives will be evidence of this university’s complicity in genocide, suppression of dissent, and violation of human rights in favour of property rights.
