Pro-Palestine protesters marched at University of Michigan's commencement as protests over Israel’s conflict in Gaza roll into graduation season.
Videos taken by eyewitnesses at Michigan Stadium show dozens of protesters walking through the aisles holding Palestinian flags. The protesters could be heard reciting chants such as “disclose, divest, we will not stop, we will not rest,” and “Israel bombs, U of M pays, how many kids have you killed today?”The protest took place early on during Saturday’s ceremony, which continued without incident.
In the weeks since, dozens of Gaza solidarity encampments have popped up on campuses across the country, with some schools such as Brown University and Pomona College agreeing to student demands to quell further action, while other colleges including Columbia University and UCLA haveEthan Hawke Lost the Oscar for 'Training Day' and Denzel Washington Whispered in His Ear That Losing Was Better: 'You Don't Want an Award to Improve Your Status'To help keep your account secure, please log-in again.
