"We condemn the racist campaign being launched in violation of our state and federal constitutions and reaffirm our commitment to fight for the liberation of Palestine on our campuses and communities. ... When confronted with the strength, momentum, and mass support of our movement, the Governor has leveraged the highest level of state action to suppress our activism. He is resorting to racist misrepresentations to justify the blatantly discriminatory violation of our First Amendment right. There is no real, legal, or moral basis for their censorship. Our right to demand accountability for our institution’s complicity in genocide and to advocate for the freedom of the people in Gaza is protected speech." - Students for Justice in Palestine, The Palestinian Solidarity Committee.

Austin, Texas. U.S.A.
"An increasingly violent atmosphere is also beginning to emerge at Texas’ universities and elsewhere. On April 5, a Muslim student and a companion were assaulted on the Austin campus after leaving a mosque. Two months earlier, Palestinian-American Zachariah Doar was stabbed in an explicitly racist attack after attending a protest for Palestine at the Texas State Capitol. Governor [Greg] Abbott has been silent about both incidents."
