UoA Student Encampment Message

by Aberdeen Social Centre - Newsletter

Hi all Sending on a message fresh from the Camp: 'Our grassroots group of staff and students and Palestinian Solidarity Society at UoA have come together to peacefully start an encampment and protest across the university until our voices are heard! We urge our administration at the University of Aberdeen to listen and demand an immediate and permanent end to the Israeli military's ongoing genocide of Palestinians. We demand that our university: * Will commit to permanent divestment from Israeli apartheid. This includes updating the investment policy to ensure companies on the BDS list are neither directly invested in nor invested in directly through holdings in managed funds. A few of these companies being HP to stop the renewal of their contract that supplies the school with both desktop and mobile computing services, shutting down the Starbucks (supplier to Union Brew) and Subway on campus, and any relations to Barclays. * Will openly CONDEMN Israel and release a statement on the on-going genocide, call for the UK government to embargo arms exports to Israel, and end all Scottish Enterprise grants to arms companies. * To engage in academic boycott and pledge not to enter any partnerships with Israeli universities. * Call for Police Scotland to end its contract with Briefcam that provides object matching services to CCTV, and operates with the Israeli police, military, and border control. (For more information on our list of demands visit and sign our petition at https://www.change.org/p/uoa-encampment-demands) We currently have been so grateful to be raising funds and receiving donations from many supporters across the city. At the moment we are in need of: * Blankets * Duvets * Sleeping Bags * Hot Water Bottles * Nonelectrical Heating Supplies Please be sure to donate what you can! Our GoFundMe link is: https://www.gofundme.com/f/aberdeen-university-student-encampment [1] But our main focus remains on gaining hands and numbers. We need campers who can stay overnight and people who can speak at rallies, teach-ins, or activities. Activities can be anything to keep us busy throughout the day (music, art, hobbies, etc.)! If you're interested in leading something along these lines, know someone who may be interested, or would like to get in touch be sure to email me' belorande(a)icloud.com Follow us on Instagram - University of Aberdeen Palestinian Solidarity Society (@uoa_palestinian_solidarity) * Instagram photos and videos [2] Links: ------ [1] https://www.gofundme.com/f/aberdeen-university-student-encampment [2] https://www.instagram.com/uoa_palestinian_solidarity/
