The past spring semester for universities across the United States was marked with "Gaza Solidarity Encampments" and pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas protests largely at commencements – that is, if commencement wasn't canceled completely due to demonstrators – but now, the protests appear to have reached a new phase, potentially foreshadowing what is to come for America this summer.
Popping up on city property
A pro-Palestinian encampment popped up in Clark Park in West Philadelphia this week, according to local outlet 6ABC, marking the first encampment on city property.
On the other side of the country, hundreds of University of California, Santa Cruz employees walked off their jobs this week after the United Auto Workers Local 4811, a UC system-wide union that represents 42,000 graduate student teaching assistants and other employees, voted to strike over alleged free speech violations related to how the system leaders cracked down on pro-Palestinian protests on campus, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The union authorized a strike with 2,000 employees at UC Santa Cruz through June 30, Inside Higher Ed reported, and union officials followed through Thursday with their warning to order strikes on other campuses if university officials did not capitulate to their demands.
The union board on Thursday announced on X, that it called on workers at the UCLA and UC Davis to strike starting on Tuesday, May 28. That same day, pro-Palestinian activists erected barricades and built another encampment at UCLA, while the school's chancellor testified before Congress about antisemitism on campus, according to ABC 7.
The strike comes with a few weeks left before finals and commencement, which is in mid-June at all three schools.

In 2020, we had to deal with ANTIFA/BLM. This time it's pro-Hamas protests.
Joe Biden can't blame the "chaos" on Donald Trump. He's not in the government right now. The mess belongs to Joe Biden.
Another color revolution, just like in 2020.
With any luck, they’ll all decamp for Chicago around mid-August.
Such a shame liberal cities are enjoying their monsters...
How many cars ya think they can put together in a week?
The idea is to pull the Democratic Party into more of a ‘kill the Jews’ direction more quickly. Somehow this correlates with “Death to America”.
Already starting today:
Pro-HAMAS protesters swarm 101 Freeway and block traffic

Many of them Biden invitees, no doubt.
And may Joey boy pay for it dearly this fall!
I have been trying to figure out how to install air horns on my Corolla.
If they are going to block me, they are going to earn some serious hearing damage doing it.
All need to be run over, chp is a clown show
Ahhh, another summer of love.
🎯
Still the same communists with the same chants.
From the river (Mississippi)
To the Seas (Atlantic and Pacific)
America shall be set free
From the Biden Tyranny !
America shall be set free From the Biden Tyranny !
Actually, that would make sense if it was a chant by BLM group.
If a tent/protest city ‘pops up’ on Florida city grounds it’ll be taken down with hours.
No permit - no tent city.
And folks who block traffic? Last time it happened it took our police 11 minutes to get to the site and arrest the protesters blocking traffic.
You ready? “These people are rising up because they’re aghast at the thought of Hitler getting a 2nd term”.
IMHO the PPs (pro palestinians) , blm (burn loot murder) and antifa (another terrorist internal faction) are all operating under the same umbrella.
