We are asking ALL students to leave their lectures at 12.30pm on Friday and assemble in Square 5 for a protest. Here, we will chant, have speeches, and march until 2pm.

Our education has been disrupted by the ongoing slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza right now, and we encourage you all to disrupt your class by leaving in the middle of your lectures. Let them know why you are leaving. If we have to live with the constant thought of Palestine, so should they.
