Who comprises the majority in the Supreme Court’s recent 5-4 decision banning abortion?

Danny Glover, who was slated to be the speaker for the Berkeley general commencement will no longer attend the ceremony, instead choosing to stand in solidarity with the unions picketing the school. UC Berkeley fails to pay its janitors a living wage.

I totally support Glover’s decision, but have to wonder why he accepted the invite in the first place. As a senior graduating next Wednesday, I can’t help but feel slightly punished when I know that my peers at other equal institutions get to have awesome speakers while we don’t because of a system-wide strike. The UC system should have dealt with its unfair practices long ago, like maybe after Fabian Núñez rejected last year on the day of the ceremony. Or ideally before that, like maybe never initiating the practice in the first place.

Do you agree?
