An anti-war protest encampment formed at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis on May 1st, 2024. Students and activists established the encampment to demand that the university divest from companies complicit in war crimes and human rights violations, specifically referencing the conflict in Gaza. This was the second such encampment at the university, following an earlier protest that was cleared by police. On the evening of May 1st, an initial agreement was reached with school officials, leading to the voluntary removal of tents on May 2nd.
