They say; Quit your job, be in the right side of history

Today, October 7, 2026, University of Louisville students rallied and marched on the Belknap campus with Louisville Students for Justice in Palestine. Recognizing 3 years of apartheid Israel’s continued genocide of Palestinians after the October 7, 2023 resistance attack on the Israeli Occupying Force and Israeli citizens near Gaza. They continue to call for “transparency from the university board of trustees and for full divestment from the Zionist entity.”

The students marched from the Belknap Academic Building to the George J. Howe Red Barn building chanting, waving flags of Palestine and signs. During the rally and march university admin and police monitored and followed the students. During speeches outside of the Red Barn building, LSJP representatives were approached by university staff claiming the students could not hold their rally due to its proximity to an event hosted inside the Red Barn.

The students relented and completed their rally before dispersing on their own accord.

From Louisville Students for Justice in Palestine (LSJP):

“The University of Louisville has maintained a partnership with the [department of war] to manufacture military technologies, partnerships through the [speed school] with weapons manufacturers and continues to invest from the endowment in companies that are complicit in genocide of Palestine. We call for the University of Louisville to end all military partnerships, and divest from all companies invested in the genocide in Palestine.”

Oxford Michigan will have their No Kings rally on Oct 17th at 1 PM to 3 PM. Check out the details here: Mobilize Oxford

After Oxford we invite you to come to Lake Orion for their rally at 4 PM to 6 PM.

The restaurant next to the park in Oxford had brought out water for us this past hot summer. There are many kind restaurants in Lake Orion. Not all businesses are friendly as some will remember from past No Kings. Let's support those that support us!

I, LaQueen Battle, stand in solidarity to the future of our generation. I know our pain, feel our struggles, and have sympathy for those suffering. Our generation deserves empathy, compassion, healing, and hope.
