Trump's tyranny continues:

"Nineteen members of the UC Berkeley community have had their visas terminated and non-immigrant status revoked this week. This includes 13 additional affected individuals after six were initially confirmed this weekend."

Trump administration terminates visas for 19 members of UC Berkeley community

“(UC Berkeley) is supporting those impacted in accordance with its long-standing procedure for a visa revocation,” said campus spokesperson Janet Gilmore in a statement.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident.

We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

In light of ICE unlawfully detaining student protesters, our UnHostile Campus Campaign is tracking schools that endanger, target, or suppress students speaking out against genocide.

If your administration has made your campus hostile, report it now: islamophobia.org/reportcampus

In 18 months, Israel has killed 17,000+ children, making them one of the most targeted groups in its genocide.

1,100 have been taken captive & 39,000 have lost one or both parents. We owe it to these children to demand an end to Israel’s violence.

UN says 100 children killed or injured in Gaza every day since war resumed

Palestinian and UN bodies mark Palestine Children’s Day with ‘harrowing’ accounts of toll of Israel’s war on children.
