“Whole futures are being erased,” Silva said. “Whole fields are being gutted, and for what? To keep the #billionaire class in control while the rest of us are told to be quiet, be polite and stay in line? But we won’t. The statement, ‘Hands Off,’ is our refusal; hands off of our #students, hands off of our #science (and) hands off of our committees.”
