Hundreds of supporters of the NYU occupation, along with the infamous Rude Mechanical Orchestra, have broken through the police barriers and TAKEN THE STREET!!! They are screaming and singing “We’re not gonna take it!”
COME JOIN US!!!
Get some fireworks in the park! Do it by the fountain! Let New York see you!
Good work on injuring 2 guards, that always looks good for a peaceful protest. What about the other students who want to the use the 3rd floor, arent you being unfair to them?
I don’t understand what you really want here, NYU is a private institution, you have no tax (NY residents) have no money going forcefully going to it. If you do not like how it is run, why don’t you tell mommy and daddy not to pay your tuition there and go to the different school or a state/city (public) school where everything is transparent to the public…
Hang in there. We’re rooting for you.
Good to commit yourself to nonviolence and stick to it. That shows you’re reasonable, and your goals are just ones. Hope you get what you’re asking. I was just having a conversation about takin’ it to the streets when I found out about this.
Best wishes!
are there pictures of this?
pffft buncha spoiled kids protesting for shit you pay for! and censoring me? HYPOCRITES!
Dee Snider is so proud.
i’m reading reports that people are fighting the police. violence will only destroy any points you hope to make! don’t resist arrest. if it happens, go peacefully and with your heads held high.
i love the video that shows everybody flaking out when they realize that they’re going to be arrested. yay solidarity! and you wonder why new york resents NYU students. they call us the cancer of new york and it’s not just b/c of our overtaking of the village, but general attitudes. it might be hard to generalize thousands of students but there are a few *cough* who make it their mission to make it seem like we are all like this.
The support in the streets will keep growing.

Idiots like you lot are the reason they invented tear gas, batons, and the water cannon.
