The HBO documentary, “Black Art: In the Absence of Light” is a good film about Black art for anyone who hasn’t seen it. I’m definitely inspired by all the great Black artists, both past and contemporary.

History has never fondly remembered a police force nor a school that chose to arrest students for exercising their free speech rights via protest. I’m disgusted by the administration of my alma mater @UTAustin today, and my disgust with DPS simply increases evermore.

History will remember that the UT-Austin administration - namely President Jay Hartzell - called in Texas state troopers to arrest their own students in peaceful protest

I knew this day would come, but I’m so ashamed of @UTAustin but proud of the faculty in @BlackStudiesUT for standing with students. Thank you @balagonline @drashleyfarmer @AMReese07 Let us know how to support!
DPS appears to be prepping to disperse with a heavy, heavy showing of DPS troopers prepped in riot gear.

This sent chills down my spine. I used to walk that path to get to my job at the GSC, which no longer exists because of the attack on DEI. Standing in solidarity with all the students around the country & world being bold in their choice to fight against genocide. ✊🏾

Hundreds of students and faculty are gathered on Main Mall to protest the Israel-Hamas war and call for the University to divest from weapons manufacturing. The protest, organized by @PSC_atx, marks the latest surge of pro-Palestine demonstrations and encampments across college
