”In every single protest that we have, our actions have had counter protesters, and there is never any backlash and never police protecting us. In fact, our police are directly protecting counter-protesters even at our events,” the woman said. “So I want to ask you all, is Palestinian life not worth mourning? And we as Arabs, Palestinian, Muslim, and anti-Jewish students, are we not worth protecting?”
According to minutes from the Feb. 5 meeting, the ceasefire resolution failed to pass by a vote of 9-12-5.
