As a worker in the 1970s, I looked forward to a Jimmy Carter administration. By the end of his term in office, like millions of my union sisters and brothers, I felt betrayed.

        Even university presidents can’t exactly meet this standard, mine pushed anti-Palestine and censored pro-Palestine rhetoric, arrested 20 protestors, fired the head of the student newspaper after they criticized the arrests, and kept inviting weapons manufacturer representatives on campus and probably had investments in them too.

        Not in any lifetime. Even the dude who was president for a month and died still got to the office over the dead bodies of Natives.
