Harvard University’s student-run daily newspaper has announced its support for and endorsement of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaign against the Israeli occupation, making it one of the most significant steps by an American university against the occupation. The Harvard Crimson Editorial Board announced in its paper yesterday that it now “proudly” endorses the BDS movement, stating that “We are proud to finally lend our support to both Palestinian liberation and BDS – and we call on everyone to do the same.” The paper’s Editorial Board admitted that where it previously held a “sceptical” stance on the matter, it has now shifted to fully supporting the BDS campaign, insisting that “The weight of this moment – of Israel’s human rights and international law violations and of Palestine’s cry for freedom – demands this step”.
