      "I was afraid for my life, I was afraid for students’ lives, and I was concerned there wasn’t enough being done to protect us..." My former prof has opened up about the year Nazis attacked @EvergreenStCol & why our administration did nothing to protect us. https://bit.ly/2QYnZyx pic.twitter.com/xgWHIGlOnG

      The ridiculous part of this entire ordeal is that Naima, my former-professor-now-mentor, is briliant. She spent almost 10 years of her life building up students, investing in Evergreen's community, and yet the response to her call to action for the admin was... silence.

      I mean, honestly, worse than silence. They pushed her out. They left her for the wolves. They decided their comfort was more valuable than her safety. All of this while we were being doxxed, followed, terrorized, and all but hunted by Nazis and trolls, both online & IN REAL TIME.

      I've never really talked about the madness of the 2016-17 academic year, honestly because I was exhausted. There were days campus was shut down. The las three weeks of the quarter, classes were cancelled bc of bomb/gun threats. They had to move the commencement venue.

      In the midst of all this, Naima continued to advocate on behalf of students, all the while swimming through hordes of threats. Her email, phone number, & home address were leaked. Think about how many radicalized attacks were happening @ the time, how VERY possible an attack was.

      A place like @EvergreenStCol, which boasts an "innovative" "justice-minded" structure, which uses racial/social justice language at every level, which claims to invite/encourage intersectional discourse, is like any other white-liberal institution: useless.

      Unless you employ equity even when its uncomfortable, unless you *truly* lean into a justice-aligned model in these critical moments, unless you de-center your fragility & focus on folx who are @ risk @EvergreenStCol, you will continue to perpetuate the violence that harms us.

      Naima Lowe deserved BETTER. Such an invaluable teacher, resource, colleague, friend, etc etc etc. We could have lost her, tbqfh. What would you have done then, @EvergreenStCol? Would preserving $$$ still have been worth it?

      "I was told admin had to “remain neutral” in the situation bc the institution was facing an “existential crisis,” hearing rumblings abt threats to defund." "The Provost told me “the school could be shut down, that's the worst thing that could happen” Oh okay. Not her death...

          In other news, I'm so so grateful Naima is still here. She's changed my life & is always gifting me the Majorest of Keys. Even now. Also, she's a WHOLE FUCKING MEWD.
