DESCRIPTION:The UC Regents are meeting this week at UC Merced, the most remote campus 
 across the UC system, in the hopes that students, faculty, alumni, and 
 community members from across the state will not show up. They expect that 
 they will have their meeting uninterrupted ALL WHILE they refuse to divest 
 their billions of dollars in Palestinian genocide. ALL WHILE they continue 
 to push for sweeps, arrests, and brutal repression of our students across 
 UCs, from UCLA to UCSD. The Bay Area will prove them wrong. We will show 
 them that when our students call, WE ANSWER!\n\nThis Wednesday marks 76 
 years since the Nakba. The US-backed Zionist entity has imposed a brutal 
 settler colonial project on the Palestinian people and homeland for the 
 past 76 years. And for over 76 years, the Palestinian people have resisted 
 from the river to the sea. This year the student movement has taken a bold 
 and historic step to end their universities’ complicity in Israeli war 
 crimes.\n\nThousands of students are rising up for Palestine across the UC 
 systems, from UCLA to San Diego, from Santa Cruz to Davis and Berkeley, and 
 beyond, and they are demanding an end to complicity in mass atrocities and 
 genocide perpetrated by Israel against the Palestinian people. We recognize 
 the stakes at hand for Palestinians who have been facing an escalated 
 genocide in Gaza these past 7 months, and we must continue to elevate the 
 stakes in our movement in the diaspora. We demand that university 
 administrations disclose their investments in genocide and completely 
 divest! The students have made their principled demands loud and clear. 
 They are not backing down and our communities will continue to support them 
 across all sectors.\n\n🔔Fill the registration form out by 5/14 for
