#DefendUP

By Rappler @rapplerdotcom
CHALLENGE: UP faculty and alumni who are Duterte's top-level officials should denounce Lorenzana's letter terminating the 1989 accord. This disregards everything that UP stands for. Should they remain silent, a six-word question: Where is your honor and excellence?

The fascist state never sleeps. Is DND even allowed to break off off this unilaterally? Read the baseless accusations Lorenzana cited on this document. Their crackdown on dissenters is just infensifying every day, especially for UP. #DefendUP #NoToCampusMilitarization

UP students, faculty, and staff will never see the uniformed personnel as "protectors worthy of trust, not fear", when they shoot our fellowmen dead in broad daylight. #DefendUP #NoToCampusMilitarization

This is peak fascism & blatant red-tagging. “We want them to see their AFP and Police as protectors worthy of trust, not fear” Y’ALL SHOOT PEOPLE IN BROAD DAYLIGHT. FUCK OFF. And remember Cebu8? Remember how you violently dispersed & arrested them inside UP premises? #DefendUP

REMEMBER: THOUSANDS WALKED OUT last August 20, 2019 to oppose military and police intrusion under the banner of defending our academic freedom and our institution's integrity and history. Kung opensiba sila ngayon, higit lalo dapat tayo. #DefendUP *Photo from OSR

UP campuses have their own police force and security personnel who are responsible for the security and safety of all UP students, faculty, and employees. Stop acting like you want to protect us when you're actually the ones killing us. #DefendUP #StopTheAttacks #EndStateFascism

No way! This Agreement can’t be terminated by just one party, let alone w/o knowledge of the UP community. UP President DaniCon needs to answer to the UP community ASAP. The letter itself redtags students & poses risks to our collective safety. #DefendUP #DefendAcademicFreedom

This agreement, the product of bloody sacrifices of activists, is made by UP students to fight for our rights. This unilateral abrogation to "protect and secure" UP and the youth is spitting on our faces and the graves of many brave students! #DefendAcademicFreedom #DefendUP

ALERT: DND Secretary Delfin Lorenzana sent a letter to UP President Danilo Conception to notify its unilateral termination or abrogation of the UP-DND Accord, perceiving the Agreement as a hindrance to its operations. #DefendUP #NoToCampusMilitarization
