📍Drexel University

Philadelphia is undeterred by recent sweeps! A new encampment is going up at Drexel, as students and community members utilize their surroundings to begin buildings defenses at the edge of camp. Solidarity, comrades.

🚨A message from The New School, where students have fully liberated the seven story Lama Jamous Center🚨

President Shalala has threatened an immediate sweep tonight or in the morning.

Shalala has refused to negotiate with the encampment for the past 5 days.

There are Faculty, Alumni and Students in the encampment. We are not sleeping. There will be cameras, lawyers and protestors, wide awake.

SHOW UP ALL NIGHT to help protect the last remaining encampment in New York. We need people, we need voices, we need your help.

30 university encampments across the UK and counting!

From SJP at the University of Oregon:

“It has been over 72 hours since five strong individuals chained themselves to the pillars of Johnson Hall. Admin has given zero response and shown they care so little for their students that they would rather leave them chained to a building all weekend then come out and listen to them.”

Solidarity with our brave comrades for their strength and steadfastness ❤️‍🔥

🗣️Bard SJP:

“ALL of our demands have been met. With this in mind, there is no such thing as 'winning' in the context of a genocide. What matters in this experience is that we can recognize our power as students, nothing we can do is enough…” More: https://www.instagram.com/p/C7LT49vs7y1/

📍UC Santa Cruz

Today, UC Santa Cruz, “UC’s most striking campus,” is the first to “stand up” in UAW 4811’s ULP strike. We walk out knowing the heat is concentrated on us, expecting admin to be more aggressive than in 2022, while also knowing there is a tidal wave of support behind us.

Join the picket if you can. All power to our comrades striking in solidarity with the movement for Palestinian liberation!

📍The New School

An update from organizers at The New School:

The New School encampment has secured a public commitment to a divestment vote within the next month by its Board of Trustees, something that every other governing body of the school has voted overwhelmingly in favor of. As part of this agreement they have ended their 6 day occupation of all 7 stories of the Lama Jamous Center (72 5th Avenue). The students, faculty, alumni, and community members who make up the encampment group remain committed to continuing to fight for academic boycott and the other demands of their encampment. In lieu of the rally that they had scheduled for May 20th they are picketing school's benefit gala on the 21st. Making it clear that they will continue to be militant over divestment until the board votes yes. The administration will not have peace until Palestine has justice.

Scores of students at Sophia University join the global student uprising for Gaza, pressing their school to cut ties with Tel Aviv University.

📍Greece

Nine international comrades are currently being held under administrative detention at the Amygdaleza Deportation Camp in Greece, awaiting deportation.

On Tuesday 14 May, 2024, 28 people were detained after protestors de-occupied the Athens University Law School to call for the academic boycott and divestment. The 28 people, including 8 non-Greek European passport holders and 1 non-Greek British passport holder, were consequently transferred to Athens police headquarters and detained overnight before appearing in court the next day.

The court session was brief and consequently postponed until Tuesday 28 May, due to the ineptitude of the Greek police and legal system, which failed to provide relevant translators and witnesses. The court session was adjourned and all 28 members were declared free, pending the court session on May 28.

Upon the court's adjournment, the 9 non-Greek protesters continued to be handcuffed and held at the court house, despite protest from the people and their legal representatives. An officer then informed the legal representatives that the 9 individuals would be further investigated to assess the legitimacy of their right to remain in Greece. The 9 were then kidnapped from the courthouse and forced onto a bus by undercover police in civilian clothing. Soon, they found themselves at the processing center for asylum-seekers awaiting deportation in Greece.

Upon contact with lawyers, the European and British citizens learned the Greek State's central security department had declared them a danger to state security, placed them on the national list of "unwanted aliens" and issued orders for deportation to their countries of origin.

The Greek State has long deported and demonized asylum seekers, those without papers, and refugees, treating them as “outside agitators.” From Fortress Europe to the U.S.-Mexico border, fascist regimes have invested billions of dollars into Zionist-manufactured military surveillance technologies from companies like Elbit Systems that fuel xenophobia, social engineering, and militarism worldwide. All of our liberation struggles are intertwined—LONG LIVE INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY
