My faculty colleagues and I have been banned from Widener Library for two weeks to punish us for reading quietly while displaying quotations from the Library's statement of values
Roughly 25 Harvard professors conducted a silent study-in at Widener Library on Wednesday to protest the library’s decision to temporarily ban pro-Palestine students who held a similar demonstration last month.

Berlin police arrested a 10-year-old at a pro-Palestinian demonstration for carrying a Palestinian flag. Disturbing, shameful, Germany 2024.

Statement by the Berlin police:
Demo with many offenses. 10-year-old unaccompanied. Handed over to parents for the child's own protection.
