About two dozen protesters gathered outside Vice-President Kamala Harris' Wednesday event earlier today to show their support for Palestine. Dozens of college campuses across the US have been taken over by students protesting against the war in Gaza.
Harris was speaking on reproductive rights in Jacksonville, Florida. At many universities, students are demanding that their schools financially divest -- or cut financial ties -- from Israel.
Pro-Palestinian protesters waved Palestinian flags and signs that read "Palestine will be free" and "end the occupation". Some student activists say that companies doing business in Israel or with Israeli organisations are complicit in its ongoing war in Gaza. Thus, they argue that colleges become complicit to the war when they invest in those same companies.
