On Feb. 20, Northeastern University (Boston, USA) Students for Justice
in Palestine received a memo from the student government cabinet disqualifying
a proposed divestment referendum on the grounds that it would create
a “hostile, threatening, intimidating, humiliating, or otherwise
abusive environment” for students. We know that the opposite is
true — divestment is a time-honored, nonviolent tool to rectify gross
injustice. The full student government will decide on March 16 whether
to allow a divestment vote or not.
