Letter sent to Palestinian universities

Dear Students of ….,

We from the University of Sussex occupation are writing to convey to you our support and solidarity with the appalling circumstances affecting your everyday lives.

We represent around a hundred students from numerous backgrounds, religions and political-lineages. We all feel compelled to join together under the common cause of showing solidarity with the victims in Palestine. We have been occupying our main lecture theatre for about a week now, demanding the University of Sussex administration give financial and academic aid; as well as a statement of support to Universities and civilians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

Please be aware of this message of support, not only from members of the occupation, but also of those who have shown support for our actions; and most importantly, the hundreds of thousands of British civilians who have been campaigning for the end of the occupation of Palestinian land for years; and who will not stop until justice is achieved.

You are in our thoughts.

In solidarity,

The Sussex occupation
