Protestors at multiple universities including the University of Pennsylvania, UCLA, and Colombia University have established a memorial library named after the late Palestinian professor and writer, Refaat Alareer, as part of the Gaza solidarity encampment. Alareer, who was assassinated by Israeli occupation airstrikes in Gaza last December along with his family, was a controversial figure known for his extreme statements against Jews and Israelis. The libraries aim to commemorate his academic and literary contributions, despite the contentious nature of his public statements.
