Venezuela reserves the right to exercise legitimate defense to protect its people, its territory, and its independence. We call on the peoples and governments of Latin America, the Caribbean, and the world to mobilize in active solidarity against this imperial aggression.

UC Berkeley shares information on 160 staff, students with US government Among those listed is feminist philosopher Judith Butler, who likened the move to a β€˜practice from the McCarthy era’.

Don't get it twisted, these 160 names are not just highly paid academic celebrities, but also modestly paid staff, untenured faculty members, and vulnerable students.

UC administration's craven collaboration with the feds is both *unsurprising* and *disgusting*.
