As Israel continues to bomb and starve 2 million people trapped in Gaza, students all over the United States are setting up pro-Palestine encampments on their college campuses.
Dozens of these student protesters have just been arrested and are facing charges. Now more encampments are popping up on college campuses all over the US, standing together for an end to the genocide and illegal occupation of Palestine.
It’s pretty incredible — this is turning into one of the biggest, most inspiring movements for freedom and liberation that US campuses have ever seen.
Let’s show the administrators and local authorities that people in every corner of the earth stand with Palestine and with the brave protesters that are risking arrest. Add your name to the open letter, and share this widely.
The latest from Gaza is truly horrific — a mass grave was just uncovered at Nasser Hospital where 310 bodies were found buried naked - many with their hands tied. Some were elderly people, others were wounded women.
This isn’t about Jews vs. Muslims - this is about people from all walks of life, including Jewish people, coming together to end a 57 year illegal military occupation that is now leading to genocide.
The college encampments are bringing a new hope for freedom and justice for Palestine. It’s likely that more kids will get arrested, more encampments will be forcibly cleared. But how we show up as a global community could change that.
Let’s come together now, for freedom, for liberation, and lasting peace. Add your name to the open letter and share this with everyone — let’s get to 100,000 signatures.
