OUR VOICES WILL BE HEARD: Defend free speech for supporters of the Palestinian struggle!
The Issue
OUR VOICES WILL BE HEARD:
- Defend free speech and academic freedom for supporters of the Palestinian struggle!
- Support the pro‐Palestine student‐defendant intervention to defeat the pro‐Trump Brandeis lawsuit against UC Berkeley and the UC System
The pro-Trump Brandeis Center has filed a lawsuit against UC Berkeley and the University of California System to deny free speech for students, faculty, and organizations who oppose the Israeli government's ethnic-cleansing and genocide in Gaza and who support the Palestinian struggle. The Brandeis Center seeks to force the UC Regents and campus administrations to discipline, remove funding, and remove official recognition of students and student organizations who voice support for the Palestinian people, and to create a legal justification for further censorship and repression of speech on college and university campuses.
Pro-Palestine student-defendant intervenors have a right to defend themselves, independent of the University of California administration, against the Brandeis Center's lawsuit in the UC System. The UC administration has made clear that they cannot and will not adequately defend the free speech rights of pro-Palestine students. This legal intervention, sponsored by BAMN (The Coalition to Defend Integration and Immigrant Rights and Fight for Equality By Any Means Necessary), is made up of pro-Palestine supporters and activists of the movement around the country.
Therefore, we the undersigned:
Call on the UC Regents and presiding Judge James Donato to support the pro-Palestine student-defendant intervention to defeat the pro-Trump Brandeis Center's lawsuit against UC Berkeley and the UC system.
