Students across various educational institutions have staged pro-Palestine protests. On May 29, students at BHSActivities held a Free Palestine protest during school hours, also calling for the liberation of Congo and Syria. On May 30, students at UAlbany's SJP chapter called to besiege the White House. On May 31, dozens of students at MIT walked out of a graduation ceremony, leading to a shutdown of Mass. Ave for a pro-Palestine rally. Meanwhile, NYC high schools are bracing for widespread walkouts and protests outside the DOE headquarters, with over 100 students already protesting at Tweed Courthouse. These protests are co-organized by the Palestinian Youth Movement and the People's Forum, demanding divestment from Israel and protection for teachers and students supporting Palestine. The DOE head has condemned the planned walkouts in NYC schools.
