Palestine Solidarity Encampment, University of Minnesota
The Palestine solidarity protest encampment at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis on May 1st, 2024. This was the second such encampment at the university, following a previous police clearing and arrests of nine protesters. Students and activists established the encampment to demand the school divest from companies complicit in war crimes and human rights violations. Protesters engaged in discussions with university officials, resulting in an initial agreement reached shortly after 10 PM, and the tents were removed on May 2nd.
