English Script:
Protestors: Let them walk! Let them walk! That’s what Harvard University. We know it’s hard for us. Remember South Africa. Remember Vietnam. Harvard University, we know which side you’re on!
Female Graduate: In this spirit, we call into the space all those who are not able to be present with us today. The indigenous people, who have been displaced and removed, are people of conscience who are incarcerated and living in exile. Our North stars, Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal, I thought I should call and every Palestinian prisoner who deserves celebration and the community that we have today.
Male Graduate: The institution’s commencement views the paper of a Harvard diploma as an opening to the gates of enlightenment, but the people’s commencement understands that it is the spirit of resistance, as exemplified through the martyrs of Palestine, who light the path forward for us all.
Protestors: Oho! Oho! The occupation has to go.
