Students for Peace and Justice hosts pro-Palestinian walk across Elon University

The Students for Peace and Justice club is holding a peace walk in support of Palestinian people in Gaza at 9:45 a.m. May 7. Palestinian student Naz Shokri will kick off the walk with a speech at Medallion Plaza, followed by a walk around Moseley Center and through Young Commons.  Students for Peace and Justice hosted another walk earlier this semester in solidarity with victims of oppression, where some students held signs in support of Palestinians. Yet, “A Walk for Gaza,” will be the first group demonstration on Elon’s campus since the war began that is specifically calling itself pro-Palestinian.
