This Thursday, September 12th, join UVMSJP outside the Royall Tyler Theater (116 University Pl, Burlington, VT) at 2:45 to join the call for UVM to rescind their suspension of SJP and to fully divest from the genocide and occupation in Palestine.
A mass meeting will be held at 6:00pm later that day to discuss the significance of SJP’s suspension, and where we go from here. Register below for the location if you are interested in getting involved with the student movement for Palestinian Liberation.
Over the course of the last 11 months, the zionist entity’s most recent genocidal assault in Gaza has destroyed every university and over 300 other schools. There will be no back to school for an estimated 625,000 Palestinian children in Gaza. Students across the world will not stand by as this genocide continues, no matter what our own universities do to prevent us from using our voice.
The University of Vermont has now held UVMSJP under “interim suspension” for over four months for alleged violations of university policy at last semester’s Palestinian Solidarity Encampment, while failing to provide any evidence that we engaged in any actions that were not protected by the first amendment. UVMSJP has filed a preliminary injunction against the University of Vermont to rescind their suspension of SJP until the courts can rule that UVM’s actions are unconstitutional, but we also need put pressure on UVM ourselves to lift their illegal suspension.
