Buildings in pretoria. With it being celebrations of south africas 1st free and democratic election, the pro, Nelson Mandela and the African National congress to power. 30 years ago, the hundreds of University Students across america have been detained so far as routers against the one guns that have been gathering steam spreading throughout the country. And these have car without non scale arrests on campuses in recent days times using chemical irritants and tases to disperse the students. Some universities have had to cancel their Graduation Services while others have seen in time buildings occupied 5 protesting students. Lets just over a week since students at Columbia University big gun demanding the school divest from israel students at columbia, hofords georgetown, mit and George Washington university began demanding the same. The protest spreads from the northeast to campuses in michigan, texas, and california. We have a team of correspondents covering this story for us in the us, but lanta and washington dc. But 1st to john henry, whos at the City University of new york, you go after more than a week of this, theres a sense of normalcy. Like you would have it say, a refugee camp. If you look around of all of these tense remain, those are where people live and sleep by day. And then if you look over on the other side, behind this monument here youve got speaker, it is one after the other who come out and sort of encourage people, remind them why theyre here. And the entire time. Ready theyre trying to make sure the police dont come in and sweep this all away. And the rules are different. At each camp we went to Princeton University earlier today because they tried to play by their rules. They are, they didnt put up tents, they were masks these, they were worried about being identified. They dont want to be kicked out. And they didnt use microphones because thats against university room. But here and it most other can. They simply dont play by the universitys rules, and thats kind of the point of an occupation. Earlier we spoke to linda sar sewer. She is a well known palestinian american, a speaker. And she had a lot to say about what she thought about what these students are accomplishing. Heres a sample. These young people are reaffirming and demonstrating that the tide is shifting on palestine that the Palestinian People have solidarity not just across the United States of america, but across the world. And these young people stand in the long tradition of student activism against the warrant, vietnam, against south african apartheid, and now for freedom and justice for the policy. So we had a 100 students interested in Northeastern University at hundreds over the past week or so. Ready i was at the january 6th purchase. I didnt see anybody interested there. Do you think theres a double standard here . There absolutely is double standards in american Law Enforcement and also with these University President s. I mean, we are watching young people here who are engaging and safe and peaceful, protesting. They are young people that you dont even have to agree with. But they live in them oregon of democracy and they have every right to freedom of speech. And they are being brutalized by Law Enforcement who could be using their time for something else. And in fact, the fact that we are suppressing young people across this country only further emboldens them and continues these types of encampments and work for just hours. Do you have any idea of why not one major University President and supporting these students and these demonstrations . Unfortunately, the way the University System is set up and they are beholden to their donors instead of being loyal to their students, the students are what make these universities university. Theyre supposed to be a place where we have an exchange of ideas where we hear multiple perspectives and we decide where we want and what position we want to take. And the universities have demonstrated that they have taken aside. And it is the side of genocide, the side of occupation, and these young people are rejecting that because they dont want that to reflect their values, which are equity and justice and freedom for all. So this has become the ribbon of daily life here. And they live at risk of arrest at all times about a 100 people were arrested in the, in the past 24 hours, there been over 615 people arrested over the past week or so. But when that happens, and when they clear out these chance, the students simply rebuild in the same place as they have at columbia and New York University where they build elsewhere, as we saw earlier at princeton. But my number is outside of students in continents at the George Washington university in the us capital it over the past 24 hours. The fence behind me here has been sealed. Nobody is being allowed in to the area where the tents have been pitched this in order to ensure that it doesnt get to be good, then it is. Now if you look over here, this, outside this on a street running along side universe be square more 10 said being pinched up here in both areas. Police say they all here to monitor. They blocked off both sides of this road, running parts university square. But they insist that because the demonstration is peaceful because there has been no vitriolic language that they will just stay and monitor. They will not into fear this despite the fact that the University Authorities awesome some 24 hours ago to move in the police. The trying to do so, and perhaps whats happening here is something that happened way back in june 2020. When dc Police Forcibly disperse, demonstrate is with but tons and to i guess something that was seen as very bad optics and something thats the police do not want repeated. Hence this stand up as a tube at the moment. The university itself, though the thirtys here, have been threatening to suspend students. They are identifying them by the tags that students use to go into the main buildings next to the square. Those are being identified as such. Have been threatened with suspension, but the demonstration remains peaceful. The police remain in what is described as a watching mode, montana which is the era washington will feel as though has this report from the protest. Emery universe, to atlanta, georgia. The feeling here is very much more of a festival, rather than the protests of the moment. I mean, i was just reading playing on this because there are hundreds of people here. Theyve all been encouraged to break blanket spring. Somebodys 8, something to drink. Very much show solidarity for the people in garza without a cutting and so i must protest in the sense of what we saw on the 1st day where the police got involved. So people to bring in blankets for bringing food and drink by putting up flags and fighters all over the quad. Hey, which way we saw those process on 1st, like theyre also being encouraged to write message of supports messages of support on the ground, which will do whatever they can just to show that the people who because i have no fee for government, im going to bring in mason, whos one of the organizers here . Im make some you say all of these people here. Its a completely different atmosphere. So what we saw on thursday, right, right. Yeah. Um, thursday honestly was very traumatic. The police cracked down was completely violent and the inside of violence against completely people processors. So for the past 2 days weve kind of been winding down trying to rest. We hear emory, we believe that self care is part of resistance. As one of our alumni from the come to school of the ology ceteris is a sense. What do you think is the end goal here . Like what, what does it look like ideally, to you guys . Yes, so the end goal is really 3 demands that we have. Number one that every disclose all their financial investments. Number 2 that they divest from all is really companies. And number 3 that they provide continued atmosphere production to all the students that were on just the rest of that weve seen a significant lack of police here today. Um, yes, could i . Um, how does that come about . Yes, i would say frankly that Emory University has learned this lesson from thursday. There have been Violent Police crackdowns on completely Peaceful Demonstrations of students practicing their 1st amendment, the rights of speech and the right to protest. And for that reason, i think theyve kind of just been keeping the police away from us. We are simply continuing to peacefully protest and demonstrate. And were not violating any policies. Were kind of just here, Community Building and sending and solidarity with thoughts fine. Its very much, well, the universitys position is uh, is quite untenable. Say some of the protests is not just because the president , who was the man that settled 1st. I but the police were right to be here. But the protests were being organized by outside influences. He is now facing calls for him to go and fight a huge number of people. And one faculty held advice on friday during which sites so today. Well mainly from motion. I have no confidence at the moment the president is refusing to move, but of course the protest is ive got that im goes in mind for more than 1000 demonstrators validate that the university of texas a campus in austin on friday. What followed was the rest of dozens of people accused on later released for trespassing. We spoke to one student at the college who tells us why has vowed to continue the protest. I my name is mustafah, yas, im a 3rd year at u t. Also last ice of engineering, my father is from sherman texas and my mothers from novice palestine. I grew up in dallas, texas, and all that, but ive travelled to and from the 1st day of my entire life. I love both places. Im proud of where im from. Over here. I get to choose to go to process over there every single day. Youre fine for your own human rights. Music rights in general, the, our main goal is the open peoples eyes get the University Texas to divest stop sending light. Israel is divest from companies that profit off of war like raytheon and lockheed martin. I do not support how much i know im not anti semitic. I have lots of jewish friends. Yeah. I made it easy for them. My brothers. And i dont believe in the right occasion of the jewish people or i dont believe in terrorism or anything like that. I know where my values are on. Know what my morals are. I know what i stand for the band is 600 degrees. Thats my main. Uh, my 1st love my passion. When im on stage, i feel confident, powerful. And when im fighting for this, when im letting people hear my voice, when people see my face, its 4 in palestine and calling for divestment. People are starting to see now and im optimistic about that. Theres never been eyes on it like this before ever. My entire life has never been people. I never cared about it this much and its only going up from here. A load. Utah is a ph. D student at Cornell University and organize that with the co now it coalition for mutual reparation. He spoke about some of the implications of the process. So having on students like weve had death threats, weve had people, it was what brings lots of july. Weve had police video in taking pictures of us last be played in the video in the most area place on campus, but other students taking pictures of lots of books, us many about palestinian. Im with spring students. How out now one can every missions will be pro palestinian what some of the kinds of questions that i will ask them for the semester. I might not get paid over the summer. I might have to graduate later than expected this this semester that im taking and ive tried to what somewhat hard of mist Everything Else may not count to my degree. And i have to repeat it. Thats quite a serious thing. And they talk it to the, my understanding people who are precarious positions such as students on visas. And so it seems like the tactic we decides what is the target to visible people and people and prepares positions. Why . I think thats the case because people, i mean, the target is full suspensions, right . Ive not done anything extraordinary than anyone else and then come with. Theres been people who have been me. Ive been by my side every step of the way as has been coming and started and then not targeted them in Southern Gaza displays part of students that come send a rafter off banking student protests is full that show solidarity. Theyve been displaying messages of gratitude on the tense. They say that despite clement downs, by university administrations, and the police, close to any level has been heard by the people besieged and got so im, im not, thats how they had to for the im not sure i had enough with this idea came to us of seeing what was happening in the news, especially the support from the students of the world, particularly the students of Columbia University for standing with us, with the humanity, their hearts and their compassion. And we hope the world will stand united with them. We hope for the world to support them, you know, to arrest them and imprison them for us. President joe biden is due to speak. The annual whitehouse correspondence association, dennis hundreds of journalists, petitions and celebrities have gathered that the central own event. Meanwhile, outside the hotel thats hosting the data for testers, all demonstrating in solidarity with palestinians in the besieged congress. That them on the an end to the war on guns that im moving to doesnt posting engine. Its of close to a fellow chatting this to boy called the White House Correspondents association, dinner.

This have been arrested by these very ministry and the committee to protect janice as that 2023 was a dentist. Yeah. For sure. This in a decade. 75 percent of those killed worldwide palestinians reporting on the war on gone. So she have a tendency such as this report from outside the protest in washington dc. It was obviously the White House Correspondent is going to like this before. Protest is outside, hundreds of them changing the word, shape appeared. 10, these are all dressed up in the evening finery, the birds gabbert here, cried judas. But john lift stellar drum is to go in and break bread with joe, but theres policies they all do have contributed to the depths of so many drug lists and goals that are turning this event should be ashamed of themselves. Theres been over 200 these genocide over 30000 palestinians, 100 pounds. And a 140 journalists have been targeted by the is really government murder. Because theyre telling the truth. Theyre telling the truth about the fact that that is really government. Hispanic hospitals had gone on a science and intentionally started me the people and instead of speaking out against that and having any, your listing integrity, were having dinner and laughing with fighting with providing millions of dollars to the is really government for them to fund this genocide and theyve said nothing, and actually its manufactured consent amongst the American Public for the john to find a policy and they should be ashamed of themselves.
