We are starting with Egypt () because, of course, مصر أم الدنيا (Mas Omm ElDonia/Egypt, Mother of the World)! 🇪🇬

Vote YES for GSU ceasefire resolution! A*O encourages all grad students to vote on this historic resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, and end to MIT labor complicity, and standing in solidarity with student organizers and grad workers who have faced harassment. You can vote anonymously via a secure, personal link in your MIT email. Let’s stand on the right side of history!
