High school starts encampment protest

High school students in the US have now started encampments protests of their own in solidarity with college students across the country who are protesting the genocide in Gaza.

According to a post on X, students at Iowa City’s City High are planning to host a school strike on Friday.

“Spend the day with us, an open hour, or just a few minutes during the school day to stand in solidarity with students across the country,” read a flyer from City High students.

Students added that Friday’s action is not a protest against City High School but in solidarity with “those at Columbia University, who are standing up in protest against US involvement of egregious human rights violations occurring every day in Gaza”.
