The Instagram post promoting the event referred to Israel as "the Zionist entity" and said: "STANFORD, STANFORD, YOU CANT HIDE / WE CHARGE YOU WITH GENOCIDE."
The event was in support of the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement. The outcome of the movement's goals would result in Israel's destruction. Within hours of the October 7, 2023, terror attacks, the BDS movement renewed its call for an anti-Israel boycott.
