The Syrian conflict began as a civil war between the Syrian government led by President Assad and rebel groups seeking to overthrow the government. Both sides receive military support from foreign allies - Russia and Iran back Assad, while the US and UK support the rebels. The war has killed many civilians and humanitarian crisis has ensued. Peace talks have failed and bombings by all sides have exacerbated the conflict. The rise of ISIS has added further complexity by launching attacks in Syria and abroad. The war is now a stalemate with neither side able to gain significant new territory.

Additional resource power point2_the arguments
The document discusses the arguments for and against Britain intervening in the Syrian conflict. The arguments for intervention include removing the dictator Assad to bring democracy, preventing terrorist groups from gaining power in the chaos, and stopping further killing of Syrian civilians. However, the arguments against intervention are that it could lead to more violence and terrorist control, increase support from Russia and Iran for Assad, and risk war with Russia due to advanced missiles. In the past, British intervention in countries like Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan made things worse.
War And Society
The document summarizes some of the economic and social effects of the Civil War on both the North and South. It discusses how the South experienced severe economic hardships due to food shortages and inflation while the North's economy benefited from war production and new financial policies. It also describes how opposition to the war grew in both regions over time and outlines some of the social impacts such as the implementation of the draft, riots in response, and the roles of women during the war.
Civil War Challenge 2012
This document appears to be a quiz about the American Civil War consisting of 8 rounds covering various topics:
Round 1 involves short answer questions about events like the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Dred Scott decision. Round 2 asks teams to give reasons for why the Union won or Confederacy lost. Round 3 involves identifying Civil War battles. Round 4 presents an "odd one out" challenge comparing battles and policies.
Later rounds cover the war's home front impacts (Round 5), include maps to label (Round 6), a "Who am I" identification challenge (Round 7), and quick facts (Round 8). The format mixes multiple choice, chronology, identification, short answers, and map questions to provide a comprehensive
Civil war battles 61 63 slide share
The document provides an overview of important battles and events during the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865. It discusses several early battles including Fort Sumter, Bull Run, and the use of ironclads. Major battles like Shiloh, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chickamauga, and Petersburg are also summarized along with key generals and their campaigns. Dates are provided to give context to the progression of major military engagements over the four year period of the Civil War.
Cold War II
This document discusses whether the tensions between Russia and the West resemble a "Cold War II". It analyzes the economic issues related to the 2014 Crimean crisis and compares the current economic strengths of Russia and the US to those during the original Cold War. Currently, Russia's economy is much weaker due to sanctions and over-reliance on oil/gas exports, while the US remains powerful. However, many of the same geopolitical tensions over spheres of influence remain. The crisis could negatively impact South Africa through trade disruptions and higher prices.
CIVIL WAR TIMELINE
The document provides a timeline of key events during the American Civil War from 1860 to 1865, including Lincoln's election, southern states leaving the Union, the start of the war at Fort Sumter, the Emancipation Proclamation, General Sherman's strategy of total war, and the Confederacy's surrender at Appomattox. It also includes questions about these events.
MURDER
This document provides information about the definition and procedures related to murder cases in the UK legal system. It defines murder as the unlawful killing of another person under the Queen's peace, with malice aforethought, as outlined by Sir Edward Coke in 1644. It notes that the typical murder rate in the UK is around 600 cases per year, with most victims being male and killed by sharp instruments or acquaintances/partners. It also discusses the need to prove the defendant's actions caused the victim's death and that they had the guilty mind (intention) required for a murder conviction.
Civil War Battles 63 65
The document summarizes major battles and events of the American Civil War from 1863 to 1865, including Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chickamauga, Sherman's March to the Sea, Petersburg/Richmond, and finally Appomattox Courthouse where organized fighting ended and reconstruction began. It highlights the impacts of key Union victories like Gettysburg, Vicksburg, and Sherman's March in turning the tide against the Confederacy by cutting their territories and devastating resources.

Goading The Bull In Ukraine
1) Russia has amassed over 100,000 troops on Ukraine's borders and is poised to attack, but the US and Russia are engaged in political posturing rather than decisive action.
2) Putin seeks to reassert Russian power and regain territory lost after the fall of the Soviet Union. An invasion of Ukraine could weaken NATO in the long run if it bogs Russia down in a costly war.
3) The US response has been threats of sanctions rather than military deterrence, which may actually provoke Russia to invade rather than deescalate tensions. It remains to be seen whether Russia's aggression or the US gamble on sanctions will prove the more effective strategy.
Five myths about ukraine
This document summarizes and critiques five common myths about the situation in Ukraine:
1. That the Crimea referendum was illegal, arguing that the West only objects because they disliked the outcome.
2. That the uprisings in Ukraine were solely due to a desire for democracy, rather than also being influenced by Western interference.
3. That Western sanctions support the Ukrainian people, when in reality the sanctions have little impact and the West prioritizes its own economic interests over Ukraine's.
4. That the world is on the verge of World War III, which overstates tensions to justify Western interference despite all sides having economic reasons to avoid war.
5. That the West suddenly cares about the Tat
Tok presentation
The document discusses different types of news sources and how news can be manipulated. It notes that news reported by mainstream media may not provide an absolutely accurate portrayal of events and that considering different ways of knowing, like reasoning, is important to get a holistic view. The document also discusses some controversial interpretations around the 9/11 attacks and civilian death tolls from different conflicts to illustrate how news can potentially cover up certain details or perspectives.
Researching Your Civil War Ancestor
This document provides guidance on researching ancestors who served in the Civil War. It outlines basic biographical information to collect, such as name, age, residence and unit. Useful resources include census records from 1865 and 1890, service records, regimental histories and pension papers. The document recommends beginning with basic genealogy books and searching the New York State Adjutant General's reports to identify potential units. It also discusses the Civil War Soldier and Sailor System database and provides local resources like the Rochester Public Library's Civil War master index and town historians. A case study example illustrates how names can be creatively spelled.
Civil War
The document is a presentation about the American Civil War from 1861-1865. It contains over 50 slides with titles covering various topics about the war including comparisons of the North and South, maps of railroad lines and population in 1860, leaders and generals of the Union and Confederacy, key battles such as Bull Run, Antietam, Gettysburg, and Vicksburg, the Emancipation Proclamation and African American recruitment, events in 1863 like the New York City draft riots, Sherman's March to the Sea in 1864, Lincoln's reelection that year, and the war's conclusion with Lee's surrender at Appomattox Courthouse and Lincoln's assassination at Ford's Theater.
Lecture 12 part ii - the civil war
The Civil War transformed both the North and South from 1861 to 1865. In the North, the war economy led to an industrial boom and the expansion of women's roles in the workforce. African American troops fought for the Union while facing prejudice, and dissent over issues like the draft grew. The Union achieved key military victories like Gettysburg that helped build support for the war effort. The South became more urbanized and industrialized under the strain of war, while the Confederate states also saw dissent amid the conflict. The war ultimately ended with Union victory after enormous costs, including over 600,000 lives lost between both sides. It also led to the abolition of slavery in the United States.
Assignment #2 Military-Industrial Complex
The document discusses the normalization of militarization in everyday American life and the influence of the military-industrial complex. It describes how the author witnessed the militarized police response to the Boston Marathon bombing firsthand. It also notes how many daily consumer companies, including Verizon, are top Defense Department contractors, meaning Americans indirectly fund war through their regular purchases and activities. The author acknowledges being troubled by their indirect contributions to militarization through services like their cellphone, but that avoiding it would come at a high personal cost due to the widespread military influence over the economy.

Breaking into britain
The documentary "Breaking into Britain: The lorry Jumpers" contradicts the view that the parents of Syrian migrant child Aylan Kurdi were "greedy" by showing the extreme dangers and hardships migrants endure to travel from Calais to Dover. It profiles migrants like Ozi who risk daily beatings and attacks to attempt the crossing out of desperation after exhausting opportunities in their home countries. Their stories illustrate the lengths people will go to escape conditions of war, poverty, and violence. Witnessing firsthand the struggles and risks migrants face, the documentary refutes the claim that Kurdi's parents were merely seeking a "good life" and instead provides context for understanding their motivations to travel.
Dred scott
Dred Scott was born into slavery in Virginia in 1795 and was owned by various masters over time. He lived with his owner in Wisconsin and Illinois, free states, for extended periods. After his owner died, Scott sued for his freedom, arguing that living in free states should grant him emancipation. The case went to the Supreme Court, which ruled against Scott, establishing that slaves and their descendants could never be citizens. This inflamed tensions between North and South and inspired amendments abolishing and limiting slavery.
Misconceptions
This document discusses several common misconceptions about World War 1:
1) While some shell-shocked soldiers were executed for cowardice in Britain, the vast majority of the 80,000 shell-shocked British soldiers were not executed.
2) Civilian casualties during WW1 were significant, especially in Central and Eastern Europe, though the exact numbers are unknown. Civilians suffered and their lives mattered greatly.
3) While American troops were initially inexperienced when they joined the war in 1917, their participation was crucial in ensuring the Allies were able to push back German forces. Without American intervention, Germany may have been victorious.
Pops
The document summarizes the rise of the Populist movement in the 1890s among American farmers in response to economic hardship. Various agricultural organizations formed alliances that eventually merged to establish the Populist Party in 1892. The party advocated for policies like tariff reduction, income tax, and government regulation of railroads. While the Populist candidate in 1892 received over 8% of the popular vote, the party did not gain significant power. Economic panics in the 1890s exacerbated farmers' issues and increased their political involvement, but the Populist agenda was halted after their candidate, William Jennings Bryan, lost the 1896 election.
populism-final
The document summarizes the rise of populist movements in the 1890s among farmers in response to economic hardship. Multiple farmers alliances and organizations formed and eventually merged to become the Populist Party in 1892. The Populist Party platform advocated for financial reforms like free silver coinage and taxation of large incomes and corporations. However, the Populists failed to gain widespread victory and lost the 1896 presidential election, contributing to the decline of the populist movement.
Black History
Dred Scott was born into slavery in Virginia and was sold to Dr. John Emerson. Emerson took Scott to free states like Illinois and Wisconsin, where Scott met and married Harriet Robinson. After Emerson's death, Scott sued for his freedom in 1847, arguing that living in free states made him free. The case went to the Supreme Court in 1857, where Chief Justice Roger Taney ruled that Scott was not a citizen and had no right to sue, and that slaves were property not protected by the Constitution. This decision heightened tensions preceding the Civil War.
lecture 15 outbreak of war
This document contains lecture notes on the outbreak of the American Civil War. It discusses key events and factors that led to war, including the 1860 presidential election, southern secession, and failed compromise efforts like the Crittenden Compromise.

It then discusses some of the major battles of the war including Bull Run, Shiloh, Antietam, Gettysburg, and concludes with Sherman's total war strategy and the surrender at Appomattox Courthouse.
Populists new and improved!
The document summarizes the rise of the Populist movement in the 1890s United States. Various agricultural organizations like the Farmers Alliances joined together and formed the Populist Party in 1892 to advocate for farmers' issues. The Populist Party platform called for financial reforms like free silver coinage and regulation of railroads. They had some success in the 1892 election but the depression of 1893 increased farmers' economic struggles and political involvement, culminating in William Jennings Bryan running against the gold standard in 1896 though he ultimately lost to William McKinley.
Gilded agepolitics
1. During the Gilded Age from 1870-1900, American politics was characterized by a stalemate between the two major political parties, the Republicans and Democrats, with each party appealing to different voting blocs.
2. The federal government took a very laissez-faire approach, limiting its role mainly to delivering mail, maintaining the military, collecting taxes, and conducting foreign policy.
3. Political corruption was rampant, with party bosses wielding influence and presidents doling out federal jobs to political supporters. However, civil service reforms in 1883 aimed to create a more impartial government bureaucracy.
Reasons/Results of the Civil War
The document summarizes some of the key political, economic, and social reasons for the outbreak of the Civil War. The North supported a strong central government and the abolition of slavery, while the South believed in states' rights and the right to own slaves. Economically, the North was becoming more industrialized while the South relied on slave labor for its agricultural economy. These deep divisions and fears over the issues of slavery and states' rights ultimately led the South to secede from the Union and the North to refuse, resulting in the Civil War.
Women's Equality Day
This document summarizes the history of the women's rights movement in the United States from the 19th century to present day. It highlights early leaders like Susan B. Anthony and Sojourner Truth who fought for women's suffrage. It also profiles modern advocates like Lilly Ledbetter and discusses ongoing issues like equal pay. The document aims to honor the courageous women who struggled for victories in pursuing gender equality.

Let’s feed somalia! jess
A drought in Somalia is causing widespread famine and tens of thousands of deaths. The author researches which flour would be most nutritious to send as aid: quinoa or wheat. Quinoa is found to be far more nutritious due to its high protein, mineral, and fat content. However, quinoa is also more expensive. The author proposes sending a mixture of 25% quinoa flour and 75% wheat flour to maintain nutritional value while lowering costs.
Droughts
Droughts are periods of time when there is a lack of water on land caused by low rainfall from high pressure weather systems. Without sufficient water, plants and crops do not grow properly, animals die, and food shortages for people can occur. Droughts turn land into deserts if they persist for long periods. Australia experiences drought about once every 18 years due to its variable climate and experiences about 3 bad years out of every 10 on average.
Syrian Civil War - History and Background
Ottoman rule over Syria ended in 1918 and Emir Feisal briefly ruled as King of Syria until 1920 when France took control under a mandate. French rule faced nationalist uprisings and protests for independence which Syria achieved in 1946. However, political instability continued and Hafez al-Assad seized power in 1970, establishing an authoritarian Ba'athist regime that favored the Alawite minority. When Bashar al-Assad succeeded his father in 2000, he initially allowed some reforms but soon returned to the repressive status quo. Anti-government protests in 2011 demanding democratic change and end to emergency law sparked a violent crackdown and eventual civil war as the opposition took up arms.
Save water, save lives
This document discusses ways to save water in sustainable buildings. It notes that buildings account for a large portion of energy, electricity, carbon emissions, and water usage in the US. To reduce water consumption, it recommends using water efficient appliances like low-flow faucets and showerheads, dual-flush toilets, and waterless urinals. It also suggests using alternative water sources like greywater recycling, rainwater harvesting, and captured air conditioning condensation. With these strategies, the document cites an example of a LEED platinum school that achieved a 93% reduction in water usage from the local supply.
Syrian Civil War

Understanding Syria War Part I
The document provides an overview of the ongoing conflict in Syria since 2011. It began as pro-democracy protests against President Bashar al-Assad but escalated into a civil war. Many Syrians were dissatisfied with high unemployment, corruption, lack of freedoms, and repression under Assad. The conflict has drawn involvement from international actors supporting either the Assad regime or rebel groups. Over 450,000 people have been killed and millions displaced as fighting continues between government forces, rebels, and terrorist organizations. Efforts to restore peace have been unsuccessful so far.

Syrian Refugees
The document summarizes the ongoing Syrian refugee crisis, explaining that over 4 million Syrians have registered as refugees with the UN as a result of the ongoing civil war in their country. It describes how refugees flee to neighboring countries like Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan, living in camps as they wait to be accepted and relocated to host countries further abroad. Once a host country agrees to accept them, refugees are transported to their new placement location, such as the United Kingdom.
Syria crisis
The document summarizes the ongoing conflict in Syria, which began in 2011 as protests against President Bashar al-Assad but escalated into a civil war involving multiple factions. It notes that over half of Syria's pre-war population has been displaced and the country is engulfed in violence. International powers like the US, Russia, Iran, and Venezuela have intervened in the conflict in support of various sides. Peace plans and humanitarian aid efforts have so far failed to resolve the crisis, which remains ongoing after over 5 years.
20th century: Ongoing War
The Syrian Civil War began in 2011 as pro-democracy protests that were violently crushed by President Bashar al-Assad, leading to armed rebellion. The war escalated and involved multiple factions including the Syrian government backed by Russia and Iran, rebel groups backed by Western nations and Gulf states, and jihadist groups like ISIS. Over 350,000 people have been killed in the complex multi-sided war that continues today and has had devastating humanitarian and geopolitical consequences.

Middle East| Geo-Political Issues| April 2019
This document discusses the ongoing conflict in Syria and issues in the broader Middle East region. It provides an overview of Syria's damaged economy since the civil war began in 2011. It also examines the role of foreign powers like Iran, Turkey, and Qatar in fueling the conflict. Rebuilding Syria will be enormously costly, and over 6 million refugees are unlikely to return under Assad's rule. Ongoing threats from Iran and resolving ethnic tensions will be challenges. Many countries have contributed to the instability through their involvement in Syria and by not addressing the root causes of conflicts in the region.
Putin’s geopolitical chess game with washington in syria and eurasia by f. wi...
Putin is actively engaged in diplomacy to prevent the Syrian conflict from escalating into a larger war. He is working to promote a ceasefire and negotiated settlement as outlined in the Annan peace plan rather than regime change. Russia has significant interests in maintaining its naval base in Syria and preventing instability that could spread to other countries in the region. By blocking NATO intervention and supporting the current Syrian government, Russia aims to preserve Syria's sovereignty and stability while also protecting its own strategic interests.

Russia And The United States
The document discusses the relationship between Russia and Ukraine since Ukraine gained independence from the Soviet Union. It notes that Ukraine has faced its most serious crisis in recent years as it has tried to strengthen economic ties with the EU, while also dealing with tensions between Russia and Western powers over Crimea. The roots of the crisis stem from decades of corruption and an economy dominated by oligarchs in Ukraine, as well as religious and cultural differences between eastern and western Ukraine. Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 further heightened tensions and showed Russia's desire to expand its sphere of influence.

Syria will trigger a new world war
The night attack of 4/4/2017 when US ships fired 59 missiles at a military base in Syria was the first time the United States directly attacked Syrian regime facilities since the country's civil war began in 2011. The offensive was carried out on the orders of Trump as a reprisal for a suspected chemical attack by the Syrian army against civilians in the town of Idlib, one of the main bastions of rebel forces in the country. What are the consequences of this attack on the international scene? The first is the possibility of starting the US military escalation in Syria; the second concerns the deterioration of US-Russia relations; and the third is the commitment to combat the Islamic State. All that has just been reported may be the trigger for a new world war.

Democracy is good for Syria, but NOT for Bahrain Moslem Press
The document discusses the different responses to pro-democracy uprisings in Syria and Bahrain. It notes that while the media and Western governments support democracy in Syria, they have ignored much larger pro-democracy protests in Bahrain that were met with brutal crackdowns. The document argues this hypocrisy is due to geopolitical reasons, namely Western allies like Saudi Arabia and Israel not wanting instability in Bahrain, while wanting regime change in Syria to weaken Iran. It also claims the rebels in Syria have received significant arms and training from foreign governments like the US and CIA.

‘terrorism’ the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
"the fight against terrorism" is the fight against the unlawful use of violence and intimidation and carpet bombing.
Ever since the beginning of the 19th century, the West has been sucking on the jugular vein of the Moslem body politic like a veritable vampire whose thirst for Moslem blood is never sated and who refused to let go. Since 1979, Iran, which has always played the role of the intellectual leader of the Islamic world, has risen up to put a stop to this outrage against God’s law and will, and against all decency.

Thursday Thinking Activity
Social media users should not have total freedom of speech as that could enable the spread of misinformation and harm. While freedom of expression is important, it must be balanced with considerations of public safety and preventing real-world harm. Some reasonable restrictions or content moderation may be needed to curb speech that could incite violence or negatively impact public health.
Headline learning zone Twitter takeover.pptx
This document introduces a debate about freedom of speech on social media platforms. It provides background on Twitter, noting that it currently removes tweets that break its rules against hate speech, terrorism, or threats of violence. Some argue this limits free speech, while others think it is necessary. Elon Musk recently bought Twitter and plans to increase free speech, but some are unsure if this is the right approach. Readers are challenged to consider which side of the debate they support and provide evidence from the given information.
Judgement time PowerPoint
The document outlines a mock trial where cancel culture has been charged with wrongdoings and its future will be decided. Students are split into prosecution and defense teams, with the prosecution arguing cancel culture is guilty and should be stopped, and the defense arguing it is innocent and should continue. The teams must divide work and use evidence from the issue to make their points, anticipating the other side's arguments.
Recap questions
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
Newsflash session 1
The pandemic has significantly impacted both human lifestyles and the environment. It led to lockdowns that reduced pollution and helped wildlife while increasing remote work and online shopping. However, not all effects were positive, and the changes impacted different areas unequally depending on population density. While some new habits may continue, addressing climate change will require coordinated global action like that aimed for at the upcoming COP26 conference.
Pointy poses PowerPoint
The document discusses issues related to news media and the COVID-19 pandemic. It notes that 90% of reported news is negative, 31% of people try to avoid COVID news, and 7% feel media has made the situation better while 35% feel it has made it worse. The challenge is to create an informative pull-out page for a newspaper with tips on how to navigate the "infodemic" using one of the provided statistics and explaining its importance along with at least four well-explained tips.
Talk in 20 Issue 4 | From pandemic to infodemic
This document provides teaching instructions for a 20-minute session on navigating infodemics. The session defines an infodemic as a situation where people are rapidly given lots of conflicting news about the same story, making it difficult to discern truth from misinformation. It includes activities like role-playing news reports and analyzing how headlines and statistics can shape public opinions. The goal is to help students understand infodemics and develop skills for thoughtfully evaluating news during times of information overload.
News choices Hub
The document describes different scenarios involving a bakery owner. In the first scenario, the bakery sells cupcakes and cookies but customers now only buy cupcakes. As there is room for 20 items, the owner would make more cupcakes since that is what customers demand. The second scenario discusses customers asking for iced buns, so the owner should make those to meet demand. The third scenario discusses how supply and demand determines what treats the bakery offers based on what customers choose.
Talk in 20 | From pandemic to infodemic
This document provides instructions for a 20-minute teacher-led discussion on navigating infodemics. The discussion focuses on understanding what an infodemic is, how it can impact people's feelings and interactions with news, and the role of the media in shaping stories and public opinion during an infodemic. Students engage in partner and group discussions about scenarios involving news reports and statistics to develop their news literacy skills and reflect on navigating an overabundance of news.
Choosing news PowerPoint
Our brains have a negativity bias where we are more drawn to and remember bad news over good news. This is likely an evolutionary adaptation, as noticing potential dangers could help with survival. As a result, people are nearly twice as likely to choose to read negative news stories rather than positive ones. The media supplies more negative news stories in response to this higher demand from consumers. If demand for positive news increased, the amount of good news reported could also rise.
News PowerPoint
The document shows the results of a survey in the UK on where people get their news. It presents the results in a bar chart, with the highest percentage being 73% of people who get their news from TV. The other sources from highest to lowest are: social media at 44%, other websites/apps at 41%, radio at 36%, word of mouth at 31%, newspapers at 31%, magazines at 7%, and don't follow the news also at 7%.
Public opinion PowerPoint
The document discusses how different perspectives and selective exposure to news headlines about COVID-19 vaccinations in the UK could lead people to have different opinions and feelings. It notes that getting many updates could be either a bad or good thing depending on factors like if someone only sees one headline or different people see different headlines. It also questions the potential impact of constant news on mental health and the degree of influence media has on shaping public opinion.
Shaping the story PowerPoint
The document discusses how the media can shape news stories and public opinion through their reporting. It notes that people make decisions and form opinions based on the news they consume. Therefore, it is important for the media to use this power of influence carefully and responsibly. The media should consider how their reporting may affect public behaviors and thinking, both positively and negatively.
Pointy poses PowerPoint
The document discusses several statistics related to news consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic: 90% of reported news is negative; by December 2020, 31% of people were trying to avoid COVID-19 news; and 7% think the media made the situation better while 35% think it made it worse. It then instructs readers to create an informational pull-out page for a newspaper with their chosen statistic, at least four explained tips for navigating the "infodemic," and making it both informative and eye-catching.
Supply and demand hub session
This document discusses whether the baker or customers have power over what treats appear in a bakery. It provides reasons for both sides, noting that bakers need to supply what customers demand to keep their business, but bakers also aim to satisfy their own preferences. As such, there is an argument that both the baker and customers influence which treats are available.
Breaking news
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Protest reflection questions
The document discusses skills that are helpful for creating positive change through protest, including reflection. It prompts the reader to think about how each skill affects protest and what would happen if the skill did not exist. The document also asks the reader to consider whether they think protest works or not in one sentence and what would happen if all protests worked, in order to encourage open-minded reflection on protests.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
