It's been nearly two weeks since police were called in to break up a pro-
Palestinian encampment at Columbia University. Since then, a movement
calling for universities to divest financial support for Israel has spread
to dozens of campuses across America.
The protests often feature tent cities established in green spaces and
common areas, and have been largely peaceful though not always. Hundreds
of arrests have been made and skirmishes have broken out between police
and demonstrators as college leaders seek to clear the spaces and quell
the outcry. Commencements have been canceled, remote classes instituted
and access to campus has been restricted.
In a sign of escalating tensions, police forcefully evicted protesters who
had occupied Hamilton Hall on Columbia's Manhattan campus and at City
College of New York in Harlem overnight, taking nearly 300 into custody.
Meanwhile, at the University of California, Los Angeles, tensions between
dueling groups of protesters erupted in violent clashes early Wednesday
morning. There have also been signs of reconciliation, with protesters and
administrators at Northwestern and Brown reaching agreements.
Despite the pressure, the protests remain active and seemingly grow by the
day. Below, get the latest updates on this fast-moving story from Yahoo
News:
--
We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
stupid people won't be offended.
Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.
No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.
Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.
Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.
President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed
dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
