Twenty-five students across four California State University campuses have launched hunger strikes in solidarity with Palestine. They join a nationwide wave of protests demanding an immediate end to U.S. support for the genocide in Gaza.

Five Cal State Long Beach professors are being reprimanded by the school for their role in a Palestine solidarity protest. The move appears to be retribution for an article exposing the school’s ties to the Gaza genocide.

The longstanding partnership between California State University, Long Beach and Boeing is a showcase of higher education’s complicity with US-Israeli militarism and the Gaza genocide.
