On Tuesday, UNT student groups added to the wave of college campus protests that have erupted across the country in recent days. More around North Texas are expected.
“We want justice, you say how? Stop bombing Gaza now,” chanted hundreds of demonstrators at the University of North Texas in Denton on Tuesday.
Protesters held signs and gathered around Library Mall, repeating chanted phrases such as, “Free, free, free Palestine” and “Israel, Israel, what do you say? How many kids have you killed today?”Signs displayed phrases such as “Ceasefire Now,” “Free Palestine” and “UNT Funds Genocide.” Other students used chalk to write messages on the sidewalk surrounding the demonstration.
Their first demand is for UNT to apologize for hosting a virtual Q&A with two members of Israeli Defense Forces. The, held April 17, spurred a protest that day on UNT’s campus, as well as multiple outbursts within the session. The Q&A was organized by UNT Hillel, a Jewish student organization. PSC also demanded that UNT disclose all investments and divest from any “Zionist entity and all weapons manufacturers complicit in the genocide in Gaza.” Protesters at, such as Columbia University and Cornell University, have made similar demands for their universities to divest from companies that conduct business with Israel or manufacture weapons., signed by Gov.
