A protest and memorial was held Monday evening on Low Steps against China’s Zero-COVID restrictions.

War in Ukraine, DC’s COVID-19 restrictions, and cancel culture all find themselves the targets of protest in today’s Bwoglines.

Columbia University’s Native American Council will be celebrating Indigenous Peoples’ Day today, in lieu of Columbus Day, and with good reason—so take this opportunity to cast off second-grade history (replete with offensive pageants and revisionist history) and stop moaning about having class today.
