Huge thanks to @amylittlefield and @thenation for covering our sit in and demands of @Harvard_Law. If you haven't signed our letter, there's still time: https://t.co/ovRE5AtBiY.

Vandana Apte, Morgan Carmen, Kirin Gupta, Angela Wu and Jessica Grubesic helped stage a sit-in this past October as members of @hls_arj, demanding that Harvard Law School offer reproductive justice education. https://t.co/0s4VoL87z2

As the institution that produced deeply harmful jurists like John Roberts, Neil Gorsuch, and more, @Harvard_Law owes its students (and the world we hope to improve) more than the bare minimum. 3/3

This school has 0 repro justice profs, but 21 law & econ profs 🙄 We are grateful for the opportunity to learn from the incredible @michelebgoodwin, who is visiting this semester. But post-Dobbs, the absolute least HLS can do is hire a full time, tenure-track repro prof. 2/3

That’s funny, @harvard_law, we think the best place to start is to hire a faculty member who shares the same interests as our organization, as we’ve demanded for 10+ years. Repro rights & repro justice are not the same & neither of these profs specializes in even the former. 1/3

Thanks for making our fight for reproductive justice curricular options your cover story, @NationalJurist! https://t.co/ou7vQAlKrd

6/ Because apparently, to @harvard_law, the only thing that can stop a good guy with some chalk is a cop with a gun. Admin brought out hoses to wash away the messages within 30 minutes.

5/ Today, students replaced the messages. Again with chalk. Nothing obscene/profane/threatening. They were immediately met with surveillance by campus security, threats from the office of “Community Engagement Equity and Belonging,” and eventually the presence of armed police.

🧵1/ On Monday, @Harvard_Law students participated in the years long tradition of DisOrientation. This event is designed every year with love by an anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, and anti-carceral collective of students to tell the history of HLS that administration avoids.

Inspired by these future reproductive Justice warriors at @Harvard_Law who spoke passionately tonight @ City Council. They’re fighting to ensure they have access to a reproductive justice professor, curriculum & clinic! Read more about their work here: https://t.co/ruprJGEtLM

Did you know that students went on strike and otherwise demonstrated across 60 schools in support of abortion access and gender-affirming care? It's part of a rising tide of activism following the overturn of Roe, organized by @YDSA_ and @GradAction. https://t.co/y4OHadyzW6

Re-upping our request for comment from @harvard_law as the City Council unanimously adopted the resolution tonight.

Grateful to @Ammallon @MayorSiddiqui @qzondervan @PattyNolan1 for their support. @Harvard_Law, care to comment now?

@amylittlefield @thenation @Harvard_Law "Two members of the Cambridge City Council along with the city's mayor and vice-mayor are sponsoring a resolution to put the Cambridge City Council on record in support of the Harvard Law Students' demands. (Harvard Law did not respond to a request for comment.)"

@amylittlefield @thenation @Harvard_Law "As we were talking, an administrator came over to speak to the students...While assuring the students she was there to protect their right to free speech, the administrator gave a convoluted warning against treading outside the lines of polite dissent." (Classic @Harvard_Law)

@amylittlefield @thenation @Harvard_Law "There is a huge amount of pressure on students not to protest." -Tala Alfoqaha '24

@amylittlefield @thenation @Harvard_Law "It takes a certain courage to cause even a polite disruption in a place like Harvard Law School, where students 'get told constantly here, especially in class and in conversation, that wee need to assume good intent and respect everyone's opinion.'" -Lisa Fanning '24

@amylittlefield @thenation @Harvard_Law "We have professors that are literally inviting Jonathan Mitchell, who went out of his way to find the most foolproof method of dismantling reproductive rights, and we don't even have a reproductive justice class to try to learn how to fight back against that." -Sam Nagler '23

Thank you so much for your support @Ammallon @MayorSiddiqui @qzondervan @PattyNolan1! Grateful to live in a city that values reproductive justice, and hopeful we can soon say the same about the school we attend @Harvard_Law

Hundreds of Harvard Law School students participated in a day-long sit-in on Tuesday to demand that the school’s administration increase educational opportunities related to reproductive rights.
