Join us at DePaul University Lincoln Park Campus’s Quad on June 10th to demand that DePaul University Divest From CPD and in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter and Defund CPD movement.
2325 N Seminary Ave

!!!White folks please come prepared to stand between cops and people of color!!!

DePaul boasts itself as a beacon of interracial solidarity yet still profits off the prison industrial complex which disproportionally targets students of color by funding the education of Chicago police officers, working with the Fraternal Order of Police, allowing ICE on campus and refusing to support the BDS (boycott, divest, and sanction) movement.

When DePaul students have tried to take action against the university in the past we have been silenced by the administration which last week called SWAT on students who protested for black lives in the wake of the George Floyd and Breonna Taylor killings at the hands of police.

We stand with the greater movement to defund, disarm and disband the police and that is why we are demanding that DePaul no longer allows CPD to harass and terrorize vulnerable students who have to face the same sorts of oppression in their own neighborhoods.


WE DEMAND THAT DEPAUL UNIVERSITY
-End its relationship with CPD and FOP
-Pay laid off dining Chartwells workers
-End investments in private prisons
-Ban the Box
-Refuse to cooperate with ICE
-Become a Sanctuary Campus
-Divest from Israeli Products
-End the Student Resource Officer (SRO) program that puts cops in public schools

!!Arrive at the DePaul Quad at 5pm!!
