🇵🇸 UPENN IS COMPLICIT IN THE PALESTINIAN GENOCIDE
At the heart of campus, the Benjamin Franklin Statue stands proudly as a symbol of imperial violence and colonialism.
This morning, an autonomous group poured red paint over the statue: a visual reminder of the over 186,000 martyrs and the university’s complicity in genocide.
The University has tried to supress the student intifada, supressing Palestinian voices, all in the name of “campus safety.” There are NO Universities left in Gaza. There are NO first days. The education system of Gaza has been systematically destroyed, and the genocide has only expanded.
DISCLOSE. DIVEST. THE STUDENTS WILL NOT STOP, THE STUDENT MOVEMENT WILL NOT BE STOPPED. UNTIL PALESTINE IS FREE.
