Prosecutor alleges four people protesting the Israel-Hamas war assaulted or attempted to disarm police at a University of Michigan sit-in in November. Peaceful protesters will not be charged.
The Michigan Educators Rank-and-File Committee and the International Youth and Students for Social Equality at the University of Michigan call on members of the Lecturers’ Employee Organization to vote “No” on the sellout contract announced by the LEO leadership and organize a strike to halt the repression of peaceful student protests at U-M and nationwide against US/Israeli genocide in Gaza.
The ongoing protests at U-M, as well as campuses across the US and internationally, will not be able to force their administrations to divest from Israel, let alone stop the genocide, so long as they remain isolated on the campuses.
The University of Michigan has begun issuing trespass citations to students who participated in a March 24 protest against genocide in Gaza, banning them from five campus buildings.
