UC Santa Barbara students and faculty participated in a National Day of Refusal on May 3 to demand the removal of police from campus, with participants cancelling or refusing to work â whether that be missing virtual classes or not holding classes at all â to show their support for the abolitionist initiative.
A âvirtual walkoutâ video projection was held outside of I.V. Theater by UCSB FTP.

Organized by the North American abolitionist coalition Cops off Campus, the Day of Refusal took place across the United States and some locations in Canada, including on several UC campuses and other universities. The Day of Refusal marks the first event in a full month of pro-abolition actions that Cops Off Campus has dubbed âAbolition May.â
