This feels so our of context. Like, what is the link between the state of education and a picture of 20 police people standing on top of a stair?
They're at a university. Arresting students who are protesting against the genocide in Gaza. They want the university to halt collaborations with Israeli universities.
University students have been protesting the genocide happening in Palestine. This is Texas’ response. Republicans recently called on Biden to send the National Guard to break the protests, hoping for another Kent State scenario which would tank his ratings even more. When Biden refused, Texas sent state police instead.
