New Future

Four faculty members have been fired and a student has been suspended, likely as a result of pro-Palestine activism. We have arrived at this McCarthyist attack after a number of previous attacks on free speech, Muslim students and the movement for Palestine. We must stand up and draw a line in the sand: no more repression at CUNY.

Nursing student Baki Devrimkaya faces trial in Berlin for defending a peaceful lecture hall occupation in solidarity with Gaza. His case is part of a wider crackdown on Palestine activists amid growing global resistance to genocide and imperialist violence.
