Screenshot of Ye’s tweet on October 8, 2022, which calls for retaliation against Jewish people while wrongly asserting that “because black people are actually Jew[s],” he can’t be called antisemitic. The tweet prompted his swift removal from Twitter, after which he was reinstated on November 21, 2022, when Elon Musk acquired Twitter. Photo via timesofisrael.com.

Shorecrest students and faculty (Left to right—back row: Jessica Thorn, Liam Booze, Bryce Bell, Cruz Cibran, Clark Mason, Leighton Williams, Gia Bessolo, Bella Furman, Emmie Harris, Michael Battle, front row: Candy Ran, Odeyah Rozin, Arden Katcha) at Benison Farms during the 2023 Service Week. Benison Farms is an organization associated with St. Augustine’s and the St. Thomas’ Church that promotes service and a diverse community to provide the St. Pete community with fresh produce. All week these students and faculty gardened, painted, and tended to the various plants and animals—including chickens! Freshman Emmie Harris said, “I loved volunteering at Benison Farms. Moving forward, I will now look at all of the food I eat and realize how much work was put into growing it and how much care and time and effort was put into farming all of the food that I’m given, and how some people aren’t fortunate enough to have this.” Photo via. flickr.com/photos/shorecrest.
