βΌοΈ HAPPENING NOW: NYU LAW STUDENTS LAUNCH SIT-IN AT PRESIDENT LINDA MILLSβ, CALL FOR PICKET OUTSIDE BOBST LIBRARY βΌοΈ
We demand that Pres. Mills meets with students and answers our demands:
1. Divestment from weapons manufacturers and the settler colonial Zionist state.
2. Amnesty for students punished for the December 11th sit-in.
3. A pledge to protect noncitizen students, faculty, and staff by refusing to report our community to ICE.
It has been 16 months of resistance to Israeli apartheid and genocide in Palestine. NYUβs response to students who have spoken out? Building walls, bringing cops to campus, arresting and suspending students and faculty, labeling us as βthreats,β βoutside agitators,β and βterroristsβ for peacefully demanding justice.
After NYU suspended over a dozen students for a peaceful sit-in last December, law students are showing up to prove that the student movement for Palestine cannot be stopped.
The university funds and profits off of genocide while silencing student voices. We demand Pres. Mills and the Board of Trustees take responsibility. Your complicity in violence and oppression will not go unnoticed. We will not leave until you listen.
MASK UP, GRAB YOUR COMRADES, AND JOIN THE PICKET OUTSIDE OF BOBST!
No peace until we have justice! Disruption until divestment! Resistance until return! Agitation until amnesty!
The more they try to silence us, the louder we will be. π΅πΈπ΅πΈπ΅πΈπ΅πΈ

Forwarded from Columbia University Apartheid Divest
Just this week, Columbia announced its intention to continue supporting the genocide of Palestinians by repressing students fighting for Palestinian liberation. The University has revoked the degrees of graduates, suspended and expelled even more students, and allowed ICE to harass its students on campus on top of repeated University-sanctioned police brutality and arrests.
Meanwhile, the University continues to fund the total siege of Gaza and intensifying violence in the West Bank.
It is our duty to disrupt! It is our duty to care for each other! WE MUST FIGHT BACK!
REINSTATE OUR STUDENTS NOW. DIVEST FROM GENOCIDE NOW. FREE PALESTINE. π΅πΈπ΅πΈπ΅πΈ
