Protesters take over University of Washington building
More than 25 protesters arrested after taking over University of Washington building
A group has occupied an academic building at the University of Washington, demanding the school sever ties with Boeing as the war in Gaza continues, according to the university and a spokesperson for the group.
Students are the only ones giving us hope in these fascistic times.
Which means we need to stand up for them when Trump's brownshirts show
Ah, my alma mater.
One of the first protests I was a part of ... way back in 08, was the very same issue, pro-Palestinian advocacy.
Back then we aimed at occupying a different building, but seeing as this new building (that didn't exist when I was there) was literally funded by Boeing, the MIC... yeah, its more fitting.
I never cared for football or anything, but uh Go Dawgs!
This is beautiful! I'm so inspired by our youth! Way to go!
Also, fuck Boeing.

-Braindead liberals.
30 people in a country of 341,000,000.
It's a start, but a tiny trickle of what it needs to be for any change.
Yeah, but my point is that liberals love to claim against all evidence that the Genocide Joe stuff was a campaign by Russia/MAGA/Satan against the Democrats and that now that Trump is president nobody is protesting or criticizing US handling of the genocide.
Well, there are a lot of these buildings all around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that universities aren’t safe.
It's not like their American highschools.
This time it will be the police shooting the kids
Well, I was thinking more about the other ones.
