On this day in 1939, the Nazis shut down all universities in Czechoslovakia. 1,200 students are rounded up and sent to concentration camps for protesting the German occupation. #InternationalStudentsDay will be later established to commemorate these events.
International Students’ Day is rooted in the bravery of Prague students who, in 1939, protested Nazi oppression. Their stand inspires us today. Student voices create change across borders and generations. #InternationalStudentsDay #StudentVoices

None of this replaces safe, fully funded, inclusive schools. But on International Students’ Day and during American Education Week, it’s one concrete way to say: education belongs to all of us. If you sign up for something, tell me what you pick.

So today I’m holding both: the memory of students who died fighting fascism and the reality that many people are still pushed out of classrooms by cost, racism, ableism, borders, caregiving, or mental health.

Survivors and exiled students inspired the world to remember. On 17 November, we celebrate International Students’ Day, commemorating student resistance to fascism and their relentless pursuit of education, democracy, and human rights. Join me in honoring their legacy! #InternationalStudentsDay
