Tonight at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia University‼️ The students' energy is high as they remain steadfast for the third night in a row 🇵🇸
THE MORE THEY TRY TO SILENCE US, THE LOUDER WE WILL BE! 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Current location📍: Union Square
Location updates will be posted here on X and telegram link below ⬇️
Today we honor Rachel Corrie, who was murdered by israeli occupation forces in Gaza 21 years ago on March 16th 2003 while attempting to block a bulldozer from demolishing a Palestinian family’s home in Rafah. She was 23 years old.
🚨ALL OUT TO COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY RIGHT NOW🚨
NYPD has been overheard saying they are waiting for our protest outside the gates to disperse in order to go into the encampment and arrest student protestors! All out to 116th & Broadway and stay as long as possible‼️🇵🇸
DAY 3 OF FLOODING COLUMBIA FOR GAZA 🇵🇸🚨
Today we prayed Jummah + Khutba at Columbia University at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
JOIN US to support brave comrades continuing to occupy Columbia campus for Gaza 🇵🇸 bring prayer mats and warm clothes.
🇵🇸Yesterday over 100,000 people flooded the streets of NYC and shut it down for Gaza. We marched from Brooklyn Museum to Barclays, took over the Brooklyn Bridge and ended in Union Square. "Israel bombs! USA pays! How many kids did you kill today?"

@NerdeenKiswani
who was released with a smile on her face. Folks were released to a flood of energy, rejoining our community chanting and protesting against the ongoing genocide in Gaza 🇵🇸
Despite dozens of brutal arrests made on the Brooklyn Bridge yesterday, protestors continued marching in droves unafraid. NYPD’s pathetic attempts to instill fear into the people will never come to fruition. The more they try to silence us the louder we will be‼️🇵🇸

What’s happening in Portland isn’t the test case. After 9/11, 80+ Arab/Muslim immigrants in NYC were abducted by federal agents, held without charge or trial and tortured in the Metropolitan Detention Center.
