THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
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.

Speak about your personal experience
When we are happy, we should make other people

Intonation
Intonation is the rising or falling of voice pitch across phrases
and sentences.
Controlling your intonation is important for communicating in
English.
The three main patterns of intonation in English are:
1) rising
2) falling
3) A combination of the two: (falling-rising or rising-falling)
19. 19
Falling Intonation
The most basic intonation pattern in English is falling
when you finish a statement.
We have a pronunciation class.
We live in Winnipeg.
However, we can use a rising intonation to show our
sentence is not finished yet.
I live in Winnipeg , but I was born in India.
20. 20
Falling Intonation
Another typical example of a falling intonation is the
way your voice falls in pitch at the end a sentence that
lists items.
I like blueberries, strawberries and raspberries.
There were only four students in the last class: Ola,
Sedna, Nabila and William.
21. 21
Raising Intonation
We use a raising intonation with the statements that
express surprise or in exclamations.
I can’t believe she is a doctor and an engineer!
Really!
