A pro-Palestine demonstration was held on Florida State University's Landis Green Thursday. The groups involved demand FSU divest from Israel and acknowledge the hardships of Arab and Muslim students.

Students at some of Florida’s public universities have joined the wave of pro-Palestinian demonstrations sweeping the nation this week, but their protests so far have been smaller, quieter and without the forceful police presence seen at many other campuses.

Some schools said they decided to crack down on protests and encampments after reports of antisemitic statements and actions in violation of campus policies.
