Re: “Protesters clear UW encampment by deadline” [May 21, A1]:
Thanks for protecting the Gaza encampment on the College of Washington. I’m sorry to see it shut, however all of us knew it could not be without end.
As I walked via the well-organized, welcoming tents and clear byways, I felt so pleased with the scholars, workers and school who collectively made this occur.
They didn’t immediately cease the struggling in Gaza and the West Financial institution, however they’ve saved the Israeli atrocities in our consciousness and revealed the college’s and Boeing’s callous disregard of collaborating in genocide.
In addition they have proven it’s potential to construct a group of abundance the place everybody was welcomed, fed, sheltered and revered. Muslims, Jews, Christians and atheists lived in concord and confirmed the potential way forward for Palestine as a secular, socialist inclusive state.
The organizing for an finish to the struggling of the Palestinian individuals will proceed till they’re free.
