ICE KIDNAPPED RUMEYSA OZTURK AND SENT HER INTO A LOUISANA POLITICAL PRISON CAMP
http://democracynow.cachefly.net/democracynow/360/dn2025-0327.mp4?start=...
"Over a thousand protesters gathered near Tufts University on Wednesday after masked plainclothes immigration agents snatched Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts Ph.D. student and Fulbright scholar, from the streets of Somerville, Massachusetts. Surveillance video shows agents approaching her on the streets near her home Tuesday evening and handcuffing her while she screamed for help. Tufts University’s president said the school had no prior notice of her arrest. Last March, Ozturk co-wrote a piece in the student newspaper criticizing the Tufts administration’s response to Palestinian solidarity protests on campus that were calling for divestment from Israel. Democracy Now!'s Hany Massoud and Ariel Boone were in Somerville at Wednesday's protest. “One of our community members was taken by armed agents of the state who kidnapped her from right outside her home,” said Lea Kayali, an activist with the Palestinian Youth Movement. “People are here to stand up for the movement that she was punished for supporting.”

Petition: Save the Department of Education
The Trump administration is jeopardizing education for millions of students by gutting the Department of Education as it closed key offices and fired half of its workforce.
sign: https://action.aclu.org/send-message/save-department-education?initms_af...
President Trump has promised to dismantle the Department of Education and harm students and parents across the country – and he effectively just did it. The Department of Education has an enormous effect on the day-to-day lives of students across the country. They are tasked with protecting civil rights on campus and ensuring that every student – regardless of where they live, their family's income, or their race, sex, gender identity, or disability – has equal access to education. We must demand that our members of Congress take action and stop Donald Trump from harming students and parents by dismantling the Department of Education: Send your message today.

"AMY GOODMAN: A federal judge has blocked the deportation of Mahmoud Khalil, the recent Columbia University graduate who was arrested over the weekend by immigration agents for helping organize campus solidarity protests with Gaza last year. Khalil is a permanent legal resident. He has a green card. His wife is a U.S. citizen who’s eight months pregnant. Khalil was arrested Saturday at his university-owned apartment. He’s now being held in a federal jail for immigrants in Louisiana.
President Trump boasted of Khalil’s arrest, posting on social media, quote, “This is the first arrest of many to come,” unquote."

Women's Month: 2016 Guerrilla Girls Predicted Our Countries' Current Conditions
The Guerrilla Girls are a feminist art collective who create posters critiquing museums' curation of women, and other aspects of American culture.
They formed in 1985 with the motivation of fighting sexism and racial inequality.
In 2016, deez revered New York City artists correctly predicted 2025's political landscape.
Guerrilla Girls turned down a radio interview request last year after I binged everyone of their books in the Columbus Library...
I wanted a performance discussion which compared and contrasted Jeffery Epstein with art curators from the past including Greek and Roman pedophiles.
I requested the interview under the name ANON...
I need to know who funds art..
I have zillions of ideas..
With that said...I felt like my email sent was art....

Black History Month : W.E.B. DuBois - A Recorded Audiobiography
W.E.B. DuBois Recorded an Autobiography For Pacifica Radio's KPFA.
https://wcrsfm.org/files/w.e.b.%20dubois_2.png">
W.E.B. DuBois founded the N.A.A.C.P. in 1909.
I think this W.E.B, DuBois quote is relevant for everyone in 2025...
"Either the United States will destroy ignorance or ignorance will destroy the United States." -- "Niagara Movement Speech," W.E.B. DuBois - 1905.
Pacifica Radio aired W.E.B. DuBois' Recorded Autobiography from KPFA in July 27, 1964.
