7 October 2024 – Anonymous submission:
Disclose! Divest! We will not stop, we will not rest!
In the early hours of Monday, October 7, autonomous actionists embellished the entrance to a CCNY building to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the Al-Aqsa Flood jail break from Gaza & to echo widespread calls for CUNY divestment from apartheid and genocide among its community of 275k+ students.
We amplify community calls for:
1) disclosure & divestment of its ~$8.5 million holdings in complicit companies such as Dell, IBM, HP, Lenovo, Cisco, and BMC Software,
2) academic boycott of all trips to the zionist entity,
3) protections for students & workers expressing solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle,
4) a demilitarized campus including no IOF-affiliated speakers on campus and banning of the IOF-trained NYPD from campus, and
5) a People’s CUNY to support community members at large. Shame on Chancellor Félix Matos Rodríguez and President Vincent Boudreau for security coordination with the pigs who brutalize principled, peaceful protesters.
We know CUNY is eminently capable of fulfilling these demands due to the 1984 Board of Trustees decision to divest from apartheid South Africa! Solidarity to the student intifada, solidarity to the Palestinian resistance, and glory to the martyrs of Palestine. The entity will fall!
