Let's set the narrative right!
Check the timeline of May 15 2024 on UCI campus, which ended with a violent police action against protesters at the UC Intifada Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
The timeline was compiled by the Irvine Faculty Association.
"UC Irvine paid $2.9 million to cover protest costs, UC Santa Cruz $2.7 million, UC San Diego $2 million and UC Santa Barbara $1.3 million. All of those universities called in police to remove encampments."
Imagine if they invested this money into the thousands of UC workers and students who face housing insecurity due to low wages, university-sponsored gentrification, and tuition hikes
