Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

French Students Escalate Their Gaza Solidarity Protest

HeadlineMay 03, 2024

International solidarity encampments are also spreading, including in Italy, Australia, Mexico and Tunisia. In France, students at the prestigious Sciences Po escalated their protest after the school rejected demands to review its relationship with Israel. Several students announced they are starting a hunger strike.

Hicham: “The student will continue her hunger strike until the following demand is met by Sciences Po: the inscription on its agenda and the holding of a vote without anonymity at the council of the institute to investigate the ties with Israeli universities who are contributing to the genocide.”
