Schools across the U.S. have altered policies and even landscapes in an attempt to make a repeat of last spring’s Palestine protests impossible. The result is a far-reaching war on free expression and the increased militarization of higher education.

Students are returning to campus and schools are preparing to crack down on Palestine protests.

“We are organizing with the understanding that the student body is behind us and students will continue to escalate until these demands are met because nobody on campus wants to be complicit in the genocide,” says student organizer Sinqi Chapman

Columbia University’s president told a GOP-led congressional committee that the school disciplined multiple professors over their views on Gaza.

The recent condemnation by Pomona College administrators of a unanimous student government vote in favor of BDS is nothing other than an abuse of institutional power to bully undergraduates who took a principled stand for social justice.
