Beginning Tuesday morning, about 14 students occupied a corridor to demand the university contribute $10 million to preserve the UC Townhomes as 100% affordable housing. inquirer.com/news/drexel-st…

Yesterday, we held our press conference on our sit-in protest that is now over 4 days (and nights)! We are demanding that Drexel commit funds to @SaveUCTownhomes and remove Altman+Adelman from the real estate council. We heard from residents, sit-in protestors, and Students for the Preservation of Chinatown (SPOC)!

Day 5 of sit-in! We are telling John Fry and Drexel that we will not stand for their active displacement of low-income Black communities... save the UC Townhomes and stop corporate greed! Fix your past mistakes!

It has been 1 week, or 168 hours since the beginning of our sit-in inside Drexel University's Main Building; 1 week full of education, strength and solidarity. We will continue to occupy Main Building until the UC Townhomes Coalition's demands are MET!

Incredible work from Drexel students in solidarity with Save the UC Townhomes.

The protest is being led by Drexel Community for Justice, a group committed to preserving affordable housing at UC Townhomes. metrophiladelphia.com/drexel-student…
