An absolutely enormous victory for our allies in @OneUniversityUM, who have been fighting tooth and nail for this for years. Never forget that these things only happen because of years of organizing

ICMI: Our statement from last week on admin's new commitments to moving UM towards carbon neutrality These commitments are an important step, but not nearly enough - we need a much faster timeline, and a much more robust commitment to EJ Full statement: docs.google.com/document/d/e/2…

Lest we forget that literally just two years ago, @DrMarkSchlissel decided to have ten of us arrested instead of agreeing to talk about the school’s abysmal climate action. The conversation began to shift pretty quickly after that. Direct action—it gets the goods
One University Campaign@OneUniversityUM

At the start of today's #UMichRegents meeting, @DrMarkSchlissel touts @UMich's commitment to carbon neutrality. It would have been nice if they did this before spending years dismissing @ClimateActionUM activists and arresting them for protesting.

Doesn’t mention how he arrested students from @ClimateActionUM, resisted calls for all of these things from students AND the regents, and said “the endowment shouldn’t be political.” Doesn’t mention the hard work of student organizers.

We handed @DrMarkSchlissel one of the most massive Ls of his professional career and he tries to spin it into a win lmao. The height of embarrassment. You’ll get em next time pal!
Amytess Girgis@afmgirgis

In his @UMich commencement speech just now, @DrMarkSchlissel spends 3min patting himself on the back for U-M’s plan for carbon neutrality and fossil fuel divestment. Conveniently omits how he resisted these things every step of the way. 1/

Check out this excellent interview with a few of our organizers outlining some of the key tactics to our successful divestment campaign! Critically, they highlight the importance of building solidarity with other movements, and knowing when to escalate mashable.com/article/how-to…

In case you missed public comment today, we raised concerns about the Board of Trustees rejecting a *unanimously passed* ASMSU resolution that would allow a student to sit on MSU's investment subcommittee. 1/

And @a2publicpower is taking up this fight right here in Ann Arbor, pushing for municipalization. Cities across the state with concentrated wealth and privilege have a moral imperative to mobilize that power to advance energy justice

UM is one of DTE's biggest customers, paying them nearly $70 million per year!! That sort of relationship means UM has ENORMOUS leverage--but instead of using it to push DTE to shutter coal plants, they invite a rep to sit on the carbon neutrality commission
