On at least 80 college and university campuses across the United States, students formed encampments demanding that their universities disclose their investments in Israel and divest from entities, financial and cultural, that support the occupation of Palestine. The demand, made in the context of an ongoing genocide in Gaza and the continuation of the violent ethnic-cleansing of Palestinians from their lands, heeds a call from Palestinian civil society for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanction (BDS) of Israel.
