And in Baltimore, Maryland, students at Johns Hopkins have launched a sit-in occupation of their campus administration building, protesting their university’s plans for an armed police force on campus, as well as Johns Hopkins’s contracts with Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. Students are demanding the cancellation of contracts with ICE and a pledge to donate all moneys received from ICE to Baltimore’s immigration defense fund. They’re also demanding voluntary recognition for all workers wishing to unionize and a student and faculty representative spot on the university’s board of trustees.
