On Apr. 15, 2024, students gathered on the South Lawn following a call from the SLC Divestment Coalition to take part in a day-long strike. At 9 a.m. promptly, student leaders from various groups within the collective kicked off the day’s agenda with a series of speeches calling attention to the group’s divestment campaign, problematic statements issued by Cristle Collins-Judd, and the ongoing genocide in Palestine.
