Academics Princeton University go on hunger strike in support of Gaza
[12/May/2024]
WASHINGTON May 12. 2024 (Saba) - More than a dozen faculty members from Princeton University joined the students on a one-day hunger strike, supporting the Palestinian cause and demanding an end to the Zionist aggression on the Gaza Strip.
Media reports reported on Sunday that on May 3, a group of students (18 students) at Princeton University began a hunger strike in solidarity with the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Princeton faculty said in a statement: “Our day-long solidarity is a small effort compared to the efforts of our students committed to this strike, to show their solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank, who are subjected to forced starvation and genocide by “Israel.” ".
The statement added: “We urge the university administration to enter into negotiations in good faith with student representatives and faculty members, and to consider the urgent need to stop dealing with “Israel” until it stops its genocidal war against the Palestinian people in Gaza.”
The faculty also called for amnesty for students, faculty and staff who faced disciplinary action for participating in peaceful protests.
Since last April 18, American universities have witnessed a student movement in support of the Gaza Strip in the face of the Zionist war, which later expanded and moved to universities in countries such as France, Britain, Germany, Canada and India.
