With the greenlight of Columbia President Minouche Shafik and her administration, NYPD has entered Hind Hall through the windows and begun to mass arrest students inside. Let this be remembered as Columbia and Shafik’s legacy: one of mobilizing the violence and terror of the state against their own students and faculty, solely to prevent an end to Columbia’s complicity in a genocide.
The worst part is, students demanding the college divest itself of pro-Israel connections isn’t exactly an unreasonable demand.
Unlike the Occupy protests that didn’t know what the fuck they wanted other than to be angry.
