Pro-Palestinian protesters gathered on the College Green at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia on Thursday, April 25, to join a growing trend of college protests across the US.

Footage recorded by Diamy Wang shows protesters carrying banners and Palestinian flags and chanting, “The more you try to silence us, the louder we will be” in Blanche P Levy Park.

Student media said tents were set up on the College Green following a protest at 2 pm on Thursday.

The protest came shortly after the University of Pennsylvania banned the student activism group Penn Against the Occupation from campus, the Daily Pennsylvanian reported.

No arrests had been made related to the protest, according to the Daily Pennsylvanian. Credit: Diamy Wang via Storyful
