Critics of the university president’s decision to resign warn that it will embolden those who are running cover for Israel’s genocide in Gaza and will reverberate throughout U.S. higher education.
U.S. lawmakers, in the last quarter of 2023, approved a series of resolutions smearing pro-Palestine activism as anti-Semitic and giving Israel PR cover for its open-ended killing spree, writes Corinna Barnard.
The congressional committee hearing of three elite university presidents earlier this month slandered the Palestine solidarity movement on college campuses, writes Natalia Marques.
As Israel resumed its bombing campaign, now focusing on southern Gaza, the push to hold back the growing tide of disgust is intensifying, Mick Hall reports.
