The morning after a protest at UCLA was met with violence: ‘A lot of us are struggling’

Workers removed remnants of the Gaza encampment while pieces of plywood painted with We love you Gaza' lay about

At the University of California in Los Angeles on Thursday morning, staff were picking up the pieces after two nights of violence that shocked the urban campus.

A loader heaved the remnants of the Gaza protest encampment that law enforcement had forcefully cleared early in the morning, into a large grey dumpster. Pieces of plywood spray-painted with We love you Gaza" and ACAB" (all cops are bastards") still lay about.
