How a #Columbia Student Activist Landed in Federal Detention
#MahmoudKhalil never shielded his face with a mask the way some protesters did. That made him a target when President #Trump decided to move aggressively against campus activists.

> Ecrasée volontairement par un bulldozer israélien, le 16 mars 2003, alors qu’elle tentait de s’opposer à la démolition d’une maison à Rafah, au sud de la bande de Gaza, Rachel Corrie jeune militante pacifiste américaine au sein d’ISM (International Solidarity Mouvement) est toujours présente dans nos coeurs.

After the crossings closed, this is our situation. This is our suffering, which hasn't ended The gas has run out, and I have to cook over a fire during Ramadan, which is very exhausting. The cost of a gas cylinder is sky-high. Everything has doubled in price

Today in Labor History March 16, 2003: Israeli Defense Forces murdered American activist Rachel Corrie in Rafah by running over her with a bulldozer during the 2nd Intifada. She had been defending a Palestinian home that the IDF was trying to demolish as part of their collective punishment of the Palestinian people. Corie was a member of the International Solidarity Movement. She had travelled to Rafah as part of her college's (Evergreen State, in Olympia, WA) senior-year independent-study project to connect Olympia and Rafah with each other as sister cities. Under Trump, her college would likely be stripped of federal funding for allowing such a project, and Corie, herself, might have been deemed a terrorist.
According to a January 2025 report, by the United Nations Office of Coordinated Human Affairs, 92% of all housing units in Gaza are now either destroyed, or severely damaged. 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.1 million residents are internally displaced. And 345,000 face catastrophic food insecurity.
