UT Austin students chanting “You don’t scare us” even as countless militarized Texas Troopers swarm their campus, attack their protest, and bring in horses. This movement will not be stopped.

Israel has dropped almost 75,000 bombs and shells on Gaza in 200 days, twenty times more than the US aimed at Iraq in six years of war.
