MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History May 15, 1969: Police fought students in the Battle for People's Park at the University of California Berkeley, California. The battle was over a small strip of land that the students had claimed as community commons. Governor Ronald Reagan sent in National Guards to reclaim the Park. Police gunfire killed a bystander, James Rector, and wounded 60 others, including Alan Blanchard, who was blinded for life. Street fighting continued for 17 days. Another 150 demonstrators would be shot and wounded. The battle for the park has continued ever since, with the university continuing to claim ownership and threatening to turn the park into everything from units of student housing to a parking lot. The defenders of the park have done numerous direct actions over the past 50 years to defend the park, provide mutual aid, provide free food and clothes to unhoused folks, and offer community classes. As recently as 2024, the cops have attacked, beaten, and/or arrested park defenders.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PeoplesPark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PeoplesPark</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/berkeley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>berkeley</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/students" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>students</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/protest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>protest</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>activism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/homelessness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>homelessness</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/reagan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reagan</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PoliceBrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliceBrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/acab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>acab</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/studentprotest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>studentprotest</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/university" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>university</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UCBerkeley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UCBerkeley</span></a></p>

oatmeal<p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> / Israeli Postdoc sues UC Berkeley Student Union, Alleging anti-Semitic discrimination</p><p>Karin Yaniv, an Israeli postdoctoral researcher at UC Berkeley, has filed a federal lawsuit against her graduate student union, alleging that the union has created a hostile work environment for Israeli Jews. </p><p>Yaniv claims the union's actions, which she characterizes as anti-Semitic, violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the California state law. The complaint details numerous instances of alleged discrimination, including the union making anti-Israel statements, supporting anti-Israel protests and the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BDS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BDS</span></a> movement, and marginalizing Jewish union members. Yaniv seeks a court order to stop the alleged discrimination, require anti-discrimination training, and award damages. The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. </p><p>Yaniv is represented by the Fairness Center. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ynet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ynet</span></a> published this story today with a typical hyperbolic "culture of anti-Semitism" in the headline, forgetting to explain to their readers that the so-called "Fairness Center" is a right-wing litigation center that primarily pursues anti-union litigation. It offers free legal aid to those allegedly harmed by public employee union officials. Nothing to do with anti-Semitism, it seems, rather union-busting. </p><p><a href="https://www.fairnesscenter.org/cases/yaniv-v-uaw-4811-news-release/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">fairnesscenter.org/cases/yaniv</span><span class="invisible">-v-uaw-4811-news-release/</span></a></p><p>PDF <a href="https://www.fairnesscenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Yaniv-ECF-1-Complaint-Exs.-01.24.25.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">fairnesscenter.org/wp-content/</span><span class="invisible">uploads/2025/01/Yaniv-ECF-1-Complaint-Exs.-01.24.25.pdf</span></a></p><p>Hebrew <a href="https://www.ynet.co.il/judaism/article/hk67eknk1l" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ynet.co.il/judaism/article/hk6</span><span class="invisible">7eknk1l</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/academicchatter" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>academicchatter</span></a></span> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/israel" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>israel</span></a></span><br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/palestine" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>palestine</span></a></span><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IsraelOccupation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IsraelOccupation</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IsraelWarCrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IsraelWarCrimes</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UCBerkeley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UCBerkeley</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Antisemitism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Antisemitism</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/academicchatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>academicchatter</span></a></p>
