This week marks the one year anniversary of the events at Parkland. Today, @davecullenwriter’s book #PARKLAND, a deeply moving account of the extraordinary teenagers leading the #NeverAgain movement comes out. The book celebrates the passion of these astonishing students who are making history, and is an inspiring call to action for lasting change. . . . #parkland #bookstagram #parklandstrong #guncontrol #marchforourlives #socialactivism #gunviolence #studentactivism #ushistory #booksofinstagram #igreads #igbooks #readersofinstagram #readersofig https://www.instagram.com/p/Bty_5q2Bjq_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1w1q0dgx5cbf1

A student journalist who was arrested at the scene but was not involved in the alleged vandalism has not been charged.

These developments raise significant concerns about privacy, surveillance, and the intersection of activism and immigration policy.

Day 71. Maya Little, graduate student at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, turned herself in at Orange County Courthouse. She led a rally after the university announced a plan to relocate “Silent Sam,” a statue of a Confederate soldier. The plan was to move the monument a mile from where it stood — still on school grounds — after protestors tore it down in August. Says Little, “I was charged with assault on an officer, a charge that has been commonly used by UNC police when they can’t find anything else to charge activists with; and inciting a riot, both misdemeanors. The only danger and violence present last night was once again caused by university police who came equipped to a student protest with riot gear and tear gas canisters.” #writersofinstagram #6wordmemoir #protest #change #studentactivism #activism https://www.instagram.com/p/BrBRhx5B5pn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4jhi134xjq42

Today’s #wouborderwall update (2 of 2). This weekend saw a lot of activity on the wall with the @oregonstudents holding the Oregon Students of Color Conference at WOU. Between PSU Student Union adding their opinions and someone putting swastikas on the wall by the time I took these photos the Student community had modified the wall even more and removed the NAZI symbols. #firstamendment #conversationstarter #hatecreateshate #studentactivism #interactiveart #installationart #studentartist #oregonartist (at Western Oregon University) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqYjyfdjOhv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z33m26bhb63
