And we are demanding amnesty for all pro-Palestine speech on campus, all student speech, faculties speech. Any anti-Zionist speech. We want an end to the repression that we&#8217;ve been seeing. Liberation is what we&#8217;re seeing now. It&#8217;s mutual aid. It&#8217;s communities rallying around each other. It&#8217;s an end to complicity.
