Phone Zap for Stanford 11

In June 2024, students, alumni, and one student reporter were arrested at a sit-in of the office of Stanford University’s president in protest of Stanford’s complicity with Israel’s genocide in Palestine. In Santa Clara County, the District Attorney Jeff Rosen has chosen to charge these protesters against genocide with felonies, and 11 Stanford student protesters have been indicted on two grand jury charges, making them the first out of thousands of protesters across the nation in the past two years to go to felony trial over their pro-Palestinian activism.

The next court date for the Stanford 11 is November 17, where trial proceedings are set to be scheduled and assigned. Therefore, Silicon Valley DSA’s international solidarity working group is standing in solidarity with the Stanford 11 by holding a weekly phone zap among our members to call Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen, Stanford University’s President Levin, and Representative Ro Khanna to pressure them to drop these unprecedented charges against the Stanford 11! Join us by registering for the phone zap here.
