Faculty for Justice for Palestine released a statement in support of the student encampments. They denounced Chancellor Jones’s claim in the April 26 Massmail that the ongoing protests pose a threat to campus safety.
FJP also rejected the implementation of the police force against “students protesting genocide.” Additionally, they condemn the University’s investments in corporations “instrumental to the waging of war and ongoing genocide.”
They called on the University to acknowledge student demands of divestment from weapons manufacturers, disclosure of financial assets and investments, end connections with genocidal corporations and provide amnesty for all student protestors.
