“Our universities have done everything in their power to ignore and redirect our demands for divestment, dodging accountability by suspending and surveilling students,” the group wrote. “Administrators far and wide have chosen to unleash police violence on students rather than end complicity in the Zionist occupation."
A highlights tab on the group’s Instagram profile title “Sept 12” includes a fire emoji. The tab shows different SJP chapters promoting the "day of action" and includes Arabic rap and pop music playing in the background.
