In reply to the discussion: Campus Protests Are Called Disruptive. So Was the Civil Rights Movement [View all]Doc Sportello
(7,599 posts)The civil rights movement was about gaining the rights they were promised, not "inclusion" as you put it. But if you want to bring up that false equivalence, then the many Jewish students protesting are certainly included in the protests against the slaughter in Gaza.
One of many, many examples:

And if you want to talk about violence, nothing from the protestors has come close to the physical violence protestors suffered at UCLA. An attack that was applauded by one of the Israel can do nothing crowd on here.
Another example for those who publicize Jewish students not feeling safe: https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/09/us/arizona-state-scholar-video/index.html
And if you really want "inclusion" then how about saying something about the tens of thousands of women and children who have been slaughtered in Gaza? Do you include them in your thoughts. Because I've seen a lot of mehs, war happens and other rationalizations on here.
BTW, if MLK was alive today, he would be supporting these protestors. Just as he supported stopping the U.S. slaughter of civilians in Vietnam.
