Walkout by BU Students in Support of Palestine

After a call to action by several organizations nationally supporting Palestine, some BU students joined in a national walkout on Monday, October 23. The group gathered for a rally on the George Sherman Union Plaza, calling for an end to Israel’s siege of Gaza and an immediate end to U.S. military funding and arms to Israel. “We have the power and the duty to force our institutions to end support for Israeli occupation,” BU Students for Justice in Palestine said in their social media post promoting the walkout.
