As a result of an on-campus protest, Brown University temporarily suspends the school's Students for Justice in Palestine chapter.
A crowd gathers at Brown University to protest the school's decision not to divest from companies with Israeli ties. , Brown University announced it has temporarily suspended the university's chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine pending the completion of a full investigation by the university.
The Brown Divest Coalition, an umbrella organization that includes SJP and is committed to divestment and Palestinian liberation, said in response to the investigation and the temporary suspension of SJP, “These outrageous actions are merely a continuation of Brown’s efforts to intimidate anyone and everyone who attempts to hold Brown’s governing bodies accountable for their explicit support of genocide, apartheid, and scholasticide.
“Not at all we knew that this crack down-- the differential rules and expectations-- the Palestine exception if you will, was strong at this university,” a SJP member told NBC 10.
