On this day in 1976, mass protests were held across Palestine, from the Naqab to the Galilee, against Israel's seizure of thousands of dunoms of Palestinian land, a sign of what was to come. Six Palestinian citizens of Israel were shot dead. This day came to be known as #LandDay

As people call for #BacowResign, let's center his role in structural violence. For 3 years he's refused to divest from prisons & overseen repression of our organizing efforts. His "leadership" approach is emblematic of Harvard. Harvard needs to #DivestfromPrisons & so much more!
