On Thursday, Mar 14, we call on all students, faculty, and staff of conscience at Georgia Institute of Technology to walk out of class in solidarity with the Palestinian people! Refuse to be complicit in genocide!
We are five horrific months into the U.S. backed racist-apatheid Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Israel has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians, destroyed the majority of civilian infrastructure, and is starving over 2 million people under siege. Israel is now planning a ground invasion of Rafah, to carry out its worst massacre yet. We join the global mass movement of millions that demands an end to the siege of Gaza and Rafah, a permanent ceasefire and an end to the 76-year colonial occupation of Palestine.
We condemn Georgia Tech’s complicity in Israeli apartheid and U.S. imperialism. Georgia Tech must end all the academic programs supporting the U.S. military industrial complex. Science and technology should be used only for the benefit of humanity, not to terrorize and bomb oppressed nations abroad.
