ALT On October 24, BROWN ADMINSTRATON SENT AN EMAIL TO STUDENTS FOR JUSTICE IN PALESTINE INFORMING THEM THAT THE UNIVERSITY HAS SUSPENDED S.JP, terminating the ability to hold events and meetings or post on sócial media. Hired an EXTERNAL INVESTIGATOR to begin surveilling and gathering evi-dence on protestors for the October 18th protest against the Corporation's depraved decision to reject divestment. These outrageous actions are merely a continuation of Brown's efforts to intimidate anyone and everyone who attempts to hold Brown's governing bodies accountable for their explicit support of genocide apartheid, and scholasticide.
ALT This suspension and other allegations made against us by the administration are a retaliatory, political-ly-motivated ploy to defame protestors, fracture the student movement, and detract from their complicity in the extermination of the Palestinian people. By prohibiting SJP from holding any events, including our weekly vigils, the administration has debilitated the sole organization on this campus dedicated to holding space for collective grief amidst the indiscriminate slaughter of Gazans carried out by the Zionist regime. WITH THIS DECISION, THE UNIVERSITY HAS CEMENTED THEIR UTTER DISREGARD FOR PALESTINIAN LIFE AND THEIR COMMITMENT TO THE DEHUMANIZATION OF OUR PEOPLE.
ALT For the past two weeks, Israel has laid siege to the North of Gaza, literally a "genocide within a geno-cide," bombing hospitals, refugee camps, and restricting aid to over 400,000 Palestinians while Zionist setters proudly proclaim their intent to settle the area. As the list of atrocities we bear witness to each day only promises to grow-hospital patients burned before our eyes, craters in displacement camps made by 2,000 pound bombs provided by the US, residential buildings leveled in Beirut - our university has chosen to protect their financial interests over the dignity of Palestinians time and time again.
