‘We promise each other liberation’: Columbia activists honor expelled students at the ‘People’s Graduation’ by Columbia University Apartheid Divest Coalition

Over the past two years, we have stood arm in arm in struggle against Columbia University—a university that has perverted our desire for knowledge and weaponized our labor in service of war.

We have stood proudly in blockades to proclaim that a genocide 77 years in the making must end, and that Palestine must be free. We did so because we know that even when bombed and besieged, Gaza still resists. You too, must resist. History is not a series of accidents. And the future has not yet been decided. It is through our collective action that we bring the potential of freedom closer.
