Personal note-
I'm realizing my own ablist privilege as I try to get alt- text etc for these Instagram posts- maybe impossible on my phone?

InstagramADC National on Instagram: "BREAKING: Body cam audio confirms what we’ve known all along — UT Austin students were arrested without cause for protesting genocide in Gaza. Newly released footage captures officers admitting they couldn’t identify a single illegal act before violently arresting peaceful student protesters on April 24. This wasn’t law enforcement — it was political repression. We’re holding Governor Abbott, UT Austin, and state officials accountable. Free speech is not a crime. #freespeech"6,906 likes, 83 comments - adcnational on May 6, 2025: "BREAKING: Body cam audio confirms what we’ve known all along — UT Austin students were arrested without cause for protesting genocide in Gaza.

On an average school day, harried students at UT #Austin rush across Speedway to get to class, stopping only to dodge a dangerously fast Lime scooter. On Monday, however, several students made a pitstop to get their makeup done by one of over a dozen drag performers. texasobserver.org/university-t

‘We’re All Asgardians’ a talk on the origins of Eukaryotes (us) with implications for our present-day immune systems by Brett Baker, University of Texas, Austin. Dr. Baker inaugurated the EPS Wares Distinguished Public Lecture series.

Eukaryotic cells are most closely related to the 'Hod' branch of the Asgard branch of the Archaea.

>Heyman was due at an Austin City Hall meeting about the HOME initiative. Officers did not detain him that day, even as they arrested students and piled them into police vans for transport to jail. The campus overflowed with outrage. Dozens of young people blocked the vans from leaving, until police deployed flashbangs and pepper spray to clear their path.

>Heyman said he planned on filing a complaint against the officer. More than a week later, several police vehicles surrounded him while he was driving near his home. Troopers took him into custody; Heyman spent the day in Travis County Jail.

>“When I got home later that night and checked my email,” he said, “that was when I learned that I had also been fired that same day.”

>UT officials declined my request for comment.

We call this "collaboration." UT Austin collaborated with APD in firing a professor.

My latest: Last year, I covered the chaos as a peaceful protest for #Palestine at the University of Texas at #Austin was attacked by state troopers and local police. Unknown to me, a respected UT professor I'd interviewed for other stories was also there, and was about to have an encounter with cops that would cost him his career.

Today, Austin Free Press is releasing video from that incident showing the trooper deliberately shoving him multiple times. austinfreepress.org/days-of-ra
