The first faculty-led Gaza solidarity encampment in the United States was launched Wednesday at The New School in New York City, where nearly two dozen professors and lecturers pitched tents inside the lobby of the university's main building on Fifth Avenue. The encampment is named after the Palestinian writer, poet and professor Refaat Alareer, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza in December. The faculty protest began after the police raided a student encampment at The New School and arrested more than 40 students following a request by the university administration to clear the encampment. On Thursday, 12 more people were arrested outside The New School as the faculty encampment continued inside. Democracy Now! was on the scene and spoke with protesting faculty who denounced the school's ties to Israel and the militarized police response against student protesters. "For the state violence that our students were subjected to and traumatized because of, we could not stand on the sidelines any longer," part-time lecturer Suneil Sanzgiri said. "What we're doing here is calling for all faculty across the country to step up, to risk more and to escalate, because we have to get all war profiteers out of our universities."

Amy is such a national treasure. Truly a Godsend. Imagine being so committed to journalism that even walking her dog isn’t enough for her to miss reporting the news. I’m so grateful for you Amy and your work here and I will be donating now going forward!!
Amy is just adorable and such a good soul
Don't sleep on that truth hound - they wanted to go get to the bottom of it as much as Amy!
She’s ok.. she messed up by throwing Julian under the bus. She also has allowed herself to be exploited for western strategic propaganda, but I’m not being allowed to say much here about it.
Today is identical to WW2 era for a reason.
She means well, but she’s not immune to exploitation..
@@72marshflower15 she helped lead the fight for Julian i dont know what you’re talking about. Actually nothing youre saying makes sense. If she has made mistakes that would make sense because shes a human being, shes not a robot nor a god. But i think you can look at her record and see that she has given voices to people who would be silenced and she has an insanely consistent record since the early 90’s. Im 3000 years old and have been listening to her since she began as a radio broadcast. Thats what she does, thats her job, to get her mic in front of the people who would be ignored.
Let us all fawn the great dog walk sacrifice.
Wow. Calling the police only escalates the situation. This is outrageous.
No taking over a building is “escalating”
Seems to keep happening across the country.
@@youmangso you care about property over human life’s. I’m sorry you’re in the wrong
@@youmangyou’re complicit in a government decision to commit genocide
Police protect capitalists. Everyone seems confused that the role of police is to create justice. Police are doing what they've always meant to do: make poor people obedient to rich people.
The fact that schools can invest in things like weapons and manufacturing is outrageous! How is this normal and acceptable to Americans.
To be fair, it is not easily accessible information to most Americans. Higher education isn’t even accessible to most Americans anymore
Actually your government divests in military are you dumb or just ignorant?
Why would I care about other people's investments? We're free here, anybody can invest in whatever they want.
Seriously? You don’t care when your tax dollars or students who pay for their education- that money is used for weapons to commit genocide? Really?
Because they are all demonic souls
Divest from military-industrial complex
Has a university ever have a good return on their investment and lower tuition? If not, then where is the profit going?

People have had enough of complicit leaders ignoring the crime of the century.
So why do universities have to invest funds in Wall Street in the first place?
The west and usa unequivocally surrendered its sovereignty to israel. They are occupied and caged long long before Falisten. Only brave Gazans are still resisting.
"Those who do not move, do not notice their chains.”

Because in order not to invest in Wall Street, the entire banking system would need major overhaul. If you have an account in a megabank, the money obviously doesn't just sit there.
@@longkesh1971because they've diverted so much money out of the education system they can no longer afford to support retirement funds. So now the 'invest' limited retirement funds in wall street.... It's how my mother, a 35 year college professor, lost her entire retirement package when the stock market crashed.... It's a crap policy that the attempt to push on everyone because wall street investors have corrupted nearly every aspect of society. The sorry excuse for worm that was supposed to be managing her entire departments account knows exactly how I feel..... Dude won't be going to restaurants or bars without checking if I work there again. One thing I'll give right to work states is most are also right to serve states.... I can toss you out if I don't like your haircut.
I'm so sick of people saying that when they can't educate themselves on what went on in 2008-2009. And guess what? There were NO protests.
This is wef agenda to turn our north American continent into an islamic one.
People are going to regret this.

You're seeing homos for Hamas, when in reality, these people would be murdered.

Amy at the protest with her dog is iconic
😂
Amy is the GOAT of journalism!!! Nobody else comes even remotely close.
Its not war when one side has tanks and airforce and the others have pipebombs. The USA just gave 900 million, after the emergency 26 billion dollars, after the 3 billion a year to isreal. We support isreal welfare state like their universal Healthcare. When the USA children need Healthcare.
Unbelievable. This is INSANITY AND NEEDS TO STOP IMMEDIATELY.
On top of aid, the usa also does arms deals with Israel, selling them weapons on the free market. Since Oct 7 over 100 arms deals from us to Israel occurred by the time of March of this year
And how much American humanitarian aid was used by Hamas to build terror tunnels and get rich while Palestinians suffered??
It's really sad that there had to be such an unbelievably horrendous mess before a lot of us learned more of the truth.
Yup! We struggle to get a pair of eyeglasses or a dental cleaning and these ppl get it for free on the backs of hard working Americans.
Plus free education.
Their military is set. They don’t need any more weapons for a while since Biden hooked them up lovely with the aid package gift from Americans.
And Rafah is a small town which Israel won’t have a problem carpet bombing and still have plenty more bombs in storage.
But look at the tornado outbreak making towns look like Gaza and we haven’t seen anything yet. What goes around comes around.
Thank you Amy and everyone who speaks out for peace and justice for all!
Finally the Americans realise that they do not,in fact, live in "the land if the free".
Huge respect to all the faculty members for doing what they can to protect and support their students.

Where Do Many Police Departments Train? In Israel (Amnesty International)
@@azalia423 Hence the brutal methods
No one here knows what they are protesting about, because these pro-Hamas media has controlled what people see and hear. For example :
1) No one here knows that Hamas leaders have RECORDED THEMSELVES publically calling for the death of ALL Jews around the world for YEARS (Do not take my word for it. Go watch the videos yourself).
2) The reason why ALL Arab countries REFUSE to accept Palestinian refugees is because Palestinian terrorist groups tried to over throw the governments in Jordan (the Black September War of 1970 which saw 26,000 people killed), the Second Lebanon Civil War (which the Palestinian Liberation Army started, and THAT is why they were forced out of Lebanon), and Hamas working with the Muslom Brotherhood to overthrow the Egyptian government. Even Egypt who shares a border with Gaza won't even allow in injured women and children into Egypt. Again STOP believing these LIES from the pro-Hamas media. 3) Hamas killed HUNDREDS of Palestinians when it took over the Gaza Strip in 2005. 4) They are NOT telling us that Hamas has a policy of kidnapping and torturing gays in Gaza. 5) They are NOT telling us that its HAMAS who has been DEMANDING a war with Israel for YEARS and has been firing rockets at Israeli women and children for DECADES now. (Go look it up yourself . There is a reason why Israel has the most advanced anti-rocket system in the world. Did you ever stop to ask yourself WHY?!) 6)And they are NOT showing us the HAMAS videos showing Hamas firing rockets from next to schools and residential areas, even though they KNEW that Palestinian children would die when Israel struck back. Hamas is PURE EVIL. Hamas has finally got the war they have been BEGGING for for YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS. And its the Palestinians who are suffering for it.
The students are the war criminals as they even dress like hamass
I graduated from the New School 15 years ago and I am extremely proud of the students and faculty for continuing to uphold the principles of social justice the university was founded on.
One of the reasons given was “fight against capitalism” ….. not so much about Gaza.

the News has been so BIAS in favor of Hamas.
Don't believe me? Well, did you know that Hamas has a policy of imprisioning and torturing gays and lesbians? (No, you did not know that. Go watch the testimonial videos from the survivors)
Did you know that Hamas has been firing rockets at Israeli women and children for DECADES now? (did you ever stop and ask yourself WHY Israel has the most advanced anti-rocket system in the world? THAT's why)
Did you now that Hamas has RECORDED THEMSELVES demanding a war with Israel?
Go watch the videos. Go read Hamas' mission statement. Their sole purpose is to destroy the state of Israel.
Did you know that 20% of Israel's population are PALESTINIANS who own land and businesses and can travel within Israel? (how many Jews are in the Gaza Strip? NONE.)
Did you know that the Jews who lived in the Gaza Strip for thousands of years were forced out after the Palestinians there MASSACRED hundreds of Jews in 1929? NO, you did NOT know about any of this because the pro-Hamas media has been controlling what we see and hear.
One last thing : There were 80,000 Jews living in Bagdad in 1900. There were hundreds of thousands of Jews living in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Lybia, Omar, Iran, Turkey, and other countries in the Middle East in 1900.
Now there are none. WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE JEWS? Can ANYONE here tell me what happened to those ARAB Jews who lived in those countries for THOUSANDS of years?
They were KILLLED or forced out of their homes. Where did they move to ? The Holy Lands
These faculty, students, Amy Goodman, and Zazu (sp?) are all awesome! Bravo, and keep standing against injustice! On the other hand, the police force is totally out of line, arresting people without telling them why and undoing a woman's top and searching her in broad daylight!!! That alone should get these cops in trouble. Also, how is it possible that universities are investing in weapons and manufacturing companies? This is absurd. Universities in the US are becoing more like coporations than institutes of learning and research.
Very well said and good question 👍 My hunch is Zionist behind all these immoral investments and solely to benefit Israel and war profiteers.

You probably don't even know some of them are happening, even though far more people have died in them.

And previously, in Rwanda, half a million killed and half a million raped. No sh'''t given.

There's a YT Short video of them doing that to that Medea Benjamin of Code Pink when they arrested her at the Capitol.

The female cop is literally sexually assaulting Medea, groping her over and over and over again in the hallways of Congress in view of everybody. This is done on purpose to humiliate these people and try to silence them.
Many US police, including NYPD departments have been going over to Israel since 2002 to train with the Israeli National Police. They are very strongly aligned with the Zionist Israel gov't as a result. The Anti-Defamation League and other pro-Israel organizations pay their airfare and all their expenses for them to go over there and train with the Israeli cops

Not all of what people say for Palestine is hate speech
practically none of it is hate speech
Including “from the river to the sea Palestine will be free” which is NOT hate speech despite what brainwashed z10s may think
American people need to stand up to protect their freedom of speech and freedom of assembly. We have to support independent media outlets that report the truth like this one. America is the shining star an example of freedom across the globe, it is not befitting for our institutions and government to ban freefom of speech .
