Protests Continue At Columbia University Days After Arrests Of Pro-Palestine Students
Students are camping out for a second week of ongoing protests on the campus of Columbia University in New York City, on April 25, 2024. Tents are in place as part of the ''Gaza Solidarity Encampment,'' which has become a well-organized community in protest of the Israel-Gaza War. There is a schedule of activities including talks and teach-ins, a First Aid Tent, a system of food-sharing and distribution, and a prominently displayed set of community guidelines. Talks are ongoing between students and the administration days after Columbia University President Nemat ''Minouche'' Shafik called the NYPD onto the college campus to arrest scores of pro-Palestine students who refused to dismantle protest encampments on the main campus quad. The standoff and arrests occurred after President Shafik had faced questions before Congress on campus antisemitism and enforcement of rules against protests. Demonstrators are demanding investment transparency, divestment from Israel in the wake of the ongoing Israel-Gaza War, and amnesty for students disciplined for participation in the protests.
