Harvard commencement speaker blasts university for barring anti-Israel protesters
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 май 2024
- Shruthi Kumar, the Harvard senior selected to deliver the English address during their commencement ceremony, blasted the Ivy League school for not allowing more than a dozen students to receive their diplomas.
“I am deeply disappointed by the intolerance for freedom of speech and their right to civil disobedience on campus,” she said.
The students had taken part in an anti-Israel campus encampment at the university.
More than 1,000 people then staged a walkout to decry the disqualification of the 13 students, with many chanting “let them walk,” The Harvard Crimson reports.

The problem is that they have only rights without any duties of liberty and humanity
You are right
they know their duties and what to do but you don't
@@abudarda8336 yes only you know 🤭
What duties?
Free America from AIPAC 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

Mein Kampf should be mandatory reading at Harvard from now on
Free America from hamas.

It is a cult…not a religion…not a culture. 109 cannot be wrong!!!
It’s crystal clear.
100% FREE SPEECH... Not 50% when your Red or Blue Master tells you
free speech can still be misinformed and dumb speech and it applies to government censorship not private universities
Yes, it's GREEN Chalifatic masters that dictate now.
So, we need only Green (Islamist) speech and declare it as free?
United States does not support terrorist organizations. Unfortunately, progressives do, due to their lack of knowledge. This country will pay the price one day for supporting these people. Their main goal is to take over. They did it in Indonesia, go to Jakarta, and you will see. Not a safe place anymore. Talk to someone who grew up there when the Muslims took over.
@@anna-tn8mgas much as America doesn’t like Islam. It doesn’t make any sense to say you have free speech then tell Muslims nah y’all can’t talking about this or that at least be consistent like the Muslim and say we don’t believe free speech
Crooks are deaf.
She didnt say anything. But at the same time she said everything 🔥
Really?
It's funny when people talk about freedom of speech and expression, infact all the countries with religious monopoly, Iran, Iraq, Saudi, Yemen, Afghanistan, to name a few are infact the countries where you do not have the basic rights or women rights or freedom to do pretty much anything, and she can only do this in America, not justifying violence but this is not the occasion to do that.
The world upside down! All this at Harvard! Eminent professors seated sheepishly while a young inexperienced girl giving lessons! The opening speech should have been made by an eminent professor! The professors are running away from their responsibilities!
This little girl is a product of their labour! They've produced this wonderful useful idiot!
I’m pretty sure she didn’t count the cost of her words. Now she has to deal with whether or not she will get her diploma negated. She was to enroll in master program. Pretty sure that university is off limits for her now. Not to mention it might be difficult to find a job bc of her opinions. A lot of them are doing it for attention. She knew it would go viral.
I wish she will get her diploma negated. More likely she will be made President of Harvard.
For some of us standing up for what’s right is more important than a “job”. This girl is bright and will find opportunities wherever she goes
@@munasukar The only problem is that she is not standing up for what is right. She is supporting the lowest form of inhuman terrorist Islamist killers under a misguided pretext which she is not intelligent enough to identify. McDonadls is waiting for the likes of her - no problem. Better for everyone to put these kind of people in their proper ranks.
What a coward😂
This speech will affect her future admission at Harvard graduate program , most certainly the 13 students as well .. not for their capabilities but for their non- compliance of rules & regulations of an institute .. period!!
As a university professor myself, I am really proud of this young graduate. When I listen to her I am also hopeful about the future.

dr anna
Yes, the Caliphate is a wonderful thing. Sure. If Mata Haris and Trojan horses say so....
what future is that ? Sharia Law?
@@mrvk39 Yes, obviously the braindead look forward to this bright future.
So you're part of the problem. You don't know much about terrorism and the long journey they are willing to take to overthrow countries, like my wifes country. She left her country because of people like this who eventually took over and made it dangerous. As a professor, you are very clueless.
she spent more time fixing her hair
She stands firmly for freedom of speech, the right to protest, and our civil liberties. Brave.
she stands for terrorism and misinformation. There was nothing honest, brave, or informed about her speech.
She will be a great leader!
She stands for violence, anti- Americanism and Jew hatred.
Brave to speak out when the risk is just losing a potential job at a billion dollar company? Brave is the one in Gaza right now as a volunteer providing help to those seeking refuge.
@@rl8571 it's impossible to be a volunteer in Gaza and being a moral human being because Hamas forces all volunteers to work for them.
And whoever is funding her, we know who
I was thinking.
*All these Harvard graduates shrieking "Free speech" are not familiar with ... the meaning of First amendment.*
*So, my question is: "What exactly do they know? Anything?*
I think you described them perfectly in a reply to another posting by someone claiming to be a professor. You called them zombies. Their education has wound them up to protest as programmed by their “educators”, and they mindlessly follow their programming.
@@dilvishpa5776 Yesterday, I called this event "The March of Fools." One of my degrees is in art history and after this imbecilic walkout I started to think about Bosch's "Ship of Fools" and then transitioned to our own "March of Fools."
@@dilvishpa5776 Actually you reminded me of my poem - a masterpiece (yes - it's sarcasm). One of two I wrote in my entire life - of equal quality - but serviceable too.
I think I'll reheat it now:
Marching zombies, marching zombies, marching zombies march
Marching zombies, marching zombies, marching zombies march
They don't think, they don't dream
They march, they march, they march
Marching zombies, marching zombies, marching zombies march
They know more than you can comprehend. Your patriotism is Turing into blind hatred for Arabs and Muslims. Against humanity. Go look at the museum in Alexandria near our capital and learn the positive impact these nations have had on free masons. I’m proud of what we did for Jews and Israel following the holocaust but ashamed as we stand back and watch women and children being killed using our ammunition and tax dollars. Bibi want Hamas when he fought PA in West Bank he begged to elect Hamas. Now all he wants is to stay in power. Speaking against his tyrant that many Jews are protesting in usa and Israel is not antisemitism. Stop weaponizing the term that is sacred to many.
"Students," wrong definition of students. The correct definition of a student is a person, self entitled, not responsible for anything, ignorant, and dependent upon others for their support, who do not contribute to anything other than their own self pleasure, and they try to maintain this till their parents money runs out. They maintain their status by voting for anyone or anything that supports their ignorant and hedonistic lifestyle. Until the day they are forced to work.
Why in gods name do people turn to students, who by the very definition of student indicates they are the least experienced and most ignorant of worldly affairs, who by the very definition of student, indicates they know nothing?????
And now joe biden screws over every taxpayer to give these students even more entitlement and free-stuff at the expense of everyone else???? So why in gods name do you think joe would support helping citizens when that taxpayer cash could go to buying votes from ignorant people so that someone with demonstrable dementia can stay in office.
Woke and Leftists have no place in India. Kindly go to Gaza and help people there. Giving speech is easy. Converting it into action is difficult.
Amen!
The problem shouldn't be protesting but when protesters stop other people from speaking freely by shouting over them
or going to school. or going to work.
Free speech doesn’t mean you can demand anything
Demanding the stop of war and killing of women and children is anything. What happened to your soul. Guess you did not get quality education perhaps spend too many Sundays with other activities
u are in the cowardly and tyrannical minority
like demanding the whole Palestinian land by is***
I have realised that Harvard is the place for dummies 😂
Freedom of speech at others' expense is not advisable.
New York Post I pity you! Her speech and the whole ceremony was amazing! These future leaders have still some humanity in them unlike you. You have nothing to say but attack this beautiful and gentle person. That says a lot about you. Shame on you New York Post!
So when are you guys gonna round up those Jews and punish them for affiliation with Israel?
Get over yourself

😂😂 did she can give speech on hijab and treatment of minority in muslim country
I cannot hear anyone who doesn’t condemn Hamas! Very hypocritical!
Obviously you either do not know the history of the displacement and apartheid or you support it.
Maybe you need to expand your hearing? Hamas only came in power in 2006 after splitting from the Muslim Brotherhood and this conflict has been going on for the last 75 yrs!!

Speak now and forever defend your tongue.
The fact that the professors behind her kept a smile on their faces the entire time shows how proud they were of her 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
NOT ANTI ISRAEL
BUT PRO PALESTINE
I really thought in harvard they were inteligent. I guess i was wrong
You should have a brain size of an amoeba and an iq of negative thousand.
If you had swapped "Gaza" with "Israel" in your speech, it would have been truly genuine and sensational! 🎤✨
If u r going ther to study thn do only that...dnt do dumb acts of protesting for Palestine or Israel.... Nobody cares of ur protest they willl do wht they want only
Those liberal colleges are not as liberal as they want people to believe 😂😂

All her talks about civil liberties won't apply in Gaza though 😂
I hate Harvard and everything it stands for. Now can I have my diploma?”. New rule. In order to speak at commencement, you have to have a name everyone can pronounce.

ISRAEL GENOCIDA.
I feel sorry for whoever's wife she becomes.
Be honest, you wouldn't feel sorry for any brown people.
Respect ! Kudos to this future leader in the making. We require this tribe to be a better world.
She’s a racist
Is all Indians racist
Why? Because she supports terrorist. Why do you support terrorist ishie?
A world with sharia law
You mean future hamas leader. Oh wait they won't let her because she is they/them.
What tribe is that?
This is why some poeple want to go to mars and be segregated from these things
Have you sympathy with innocent Israelies civilian who died with no reason,?
War since 1948.
@@fawazamjad5257true. All the hostages and people killed on oct 7 were military personnel
Honey you already lost the social media war , who are you trying to convince ?!
You made your best to acknowledge the world that 1400+ Israelies died since October 7 but instead the whole world found out about the 37000+ Palestinians who died only since October 7 ( not including of course who died before this too ) !
GET A LIFE
Both are bad. By saying you stand with Palestine because Israel is committing genocide does not mean you believe the killings of innocent Israeli people is fine. You can believe multiple things are true at the same time. You do know this right?
@@sifrmoja Are you pro-life or pro-choice? 60 million dead unborn babies in the USA since 1973. The ONLY reason you support Palestine is because the conservatives oppose it. The reality is that you aren't anti-genocide. If you were you'd be protesting abortion. It's super easy to expose you guys lol
What u sow ,so you Reap...
1st amendment gives right to give your opinion, not vandalise public property.
Free speech
How about condemning acts of terrorism. She is privileged to be living in America where she can preach about civil liberties and rights. The people in Gaza dont have that right under Hamas, but she didnt condemn Hamas. She spoke well, but is hypocritical.
give back Palestinians land first
@@abudarda8336 Fighting occupation against devil Zionists
Freedom of speech does not necessarily mean to give or publish or post statements to encourage violence at any level. She is student and her main focus should be on studies. If she is so overwhelmed of whats happening in Gaza, she should leave her studies and go to Gaza and fight for people. But instigating violence in a campus is the most worst thing any student could do. I am a man of colour and I disagree with her.
Clearly, you didn't engage with the nuances. Maybe listen to her speech another time with the humility of *not* knowing. She didn't take a stance on Gaza. She took a stance on freedom of expression. The entire point of a university is to debate ideas, which is what she did against the Harvard Corporation.
Don’t speak against the nations policy which gave you shelter and education
That's not the policy that did it.
By not speaking one does more harm than by speaking and offering constructive criticism. The true essence of our education is question everything which is unfair and unjust..
Not all are like you Brahmin fool
I hope she gets her student visa revoked and deported. All these foreign students are so ungrateful. Why is America waisting tax dollars on these people??
The nation also gave her freedom of speech you idiot!
Well spoken Shruhthi Kumar!
Nothing like
@Harvard
's graduation, where keynote speaker Filipino journalist Maria Ressa complained about being called an antisemite while using a classic antisemitic trope.
More than 90% of people here know the right from wrong. Yet the country has been doing the wrong things for so long.
U don't get to stand for terrorism an win...sorry...not sorry!
Then Israel has no standing as a terrorist state.
Israel doesn’t get to win then !
your right! so the school should stop funding terrorism
These students have more courage and integrity in their little finger than u will have in your entire life. Shame on you
Proud of these students who have courage to speak up for justice
misguided and uninformed. Most of these students who pay $10s of thousands a year can’t even find Gaza on the map.
They are siding with a terrorist organization. Are you really that clueless. Go do some research on hamas.
She sides with ge.ni.cide
@@pete3882Shooooo away begone TROLL
@@pete3882well said and true. Happy to see someone courageous enough to research and tell the truth.

Send her to India

That, she left her 3rd world home country to come here and ruin ours with her political propaganda.
Well done, freedom of speech
A waste of money on her education 😭
And who are you to decide that?
whatever
If she is the product of a Harvard education, no thank you!
This is America 🇺🇸
I didn't heard speeches like this on October 7
the history of 75 years torture!
@@abudarda8336 Say it louder they only car e about themselves
She's right! Hope every American listens to what she said. She's upholding justice and humanity! I admire her bravery and intelligence!
Mehhhhhh. Same boring and tiresome "we have the right to protest" message. Nothing profound about it. You had your chance to protest; and many of you simply went too far. Period.
True! Brilliant speech!
She acknowledged the power of not knowing and be willing to learn. That would have certainly helped her fellow Harvard students and graduates (and across the Ivy League) to learn that:
- Jews lived in today’s Gaza and surrounding areas (including today’s Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, etc) long before the Arabs settled into those places;
- None of these areas were “owned” by any who claim to do so today; just like every breath that we take, all these lands and riches were given to us as human beings;
- Just as it’s “hard for the people of color to be targeted against”, it’s hard for the Jews to be targeted against just because of their belief system;
- Terrorism anywhere in the world (just as violence on college campuses) is totally unacceptable, even in the garb of “independence struggle” or “freedom of speech” or whatever!
I remain hopeful that she along with her cohorts will continue to learn in their life to come, and learn to adapt their outlook and actions to be congruent to those lessons.
Well said!!!! She is certaintly brilliant at not knowing anything. Facts seem not to matter at Harvard these days.
😢😢so much painful, we are also human beings 💔 😢 freedom 🙌 ka ma'am ❤️ always women's we should be strong 💪 from Uganda 🇺🇬 blessings 🙌
Still thinks she's above the rules even during her graduation speech. She thinks pretty highly of herself.
Gives you hope for a better tomorrow.
Nutts
She should have been sent to Pakistan.
Indian can talk, but only talk.
Brave girl…..has more courage than many muslims leaders in the world
Oh now they care about free speech and liberty. 🎤
They care about supporting terrorist.
Here’s a New Democrat congresswoman. She got her 15 minutes of disrespectful fame!!! What happened to Harvard!!???
You reap what you sow.
The way she was adjusting her hair as if she was Miss Harvard 24.
It's okay, I can understand that you are jealous of her. You hair should definitely look like a tattered broom stick :P
The propaganda yet again…. Did she say anything about that, or did she spoke for civil rights, human rights, democratic principles, and incomprehensible human suffering by violence? If you are going to manipulate her words and her speech the way you titled this, that means then you do agree about that country committing a genocide.
Hey Hamas lovers, Have you heard. In Yemen. Over 377,000 people have died in Yemen since 2015 due to the ongoing conflict, including tens of thousands of civilians including thousands of children are known to have been killed or wounded as a direct result of the fighting.
60% of the deaths were the result of indirect causes like food insecurity, lack of accessible health services, unsafe water, loss of livelihoods, and rising food prices.
The war has also led to one of the largest cholera outbreaks ever recorded, with 2.5 million suspected cases and about 4,000
related deaths since 2016
The conflict has also displaced 4.5 million people, destroyed the country's
infrastructure, and left 21 million people in need of humanitarian assistance.
Ok?
Nobody cares
ISRAEL GENOCIDA.
She wont get any job offer after this she should go to PALESTINE and find a JOB 😂😂😂
She went to Harvard for education, but she uses the platform like a seasoned politician, waiting for applause.
without understanding the depth of long standing conflict and even UN is not able resolve the problem till date.
did you even listen to her words? she is talking about freedom of speech!
I guess she hasn’t watched Hamas videos of kidnapped girls with bloodied pants
Should be......anti-Genocide?
Harvard, do you have ears?
AIPAC rules Harvard ?
She's gonna be crying soon when she doesn't get a job.
So where was she when Russia waged war on Ukraine? Where was she and every other protester with Saudi Arabia and muslims at Yemen? China and Xinjuang muslims? Nothing is adding up except when America and Israel got involved. Clarify why no one spoke up about all these other geopolitical problems. You're supposed to be a commencement speaker held at high regard but lacked vocalization on these other huge humanitarian issues?? Future leader but entirely polarized as well??? I don't get it 😂 Don't tell me you're part of the alleged Harvard skewed bell curve (half-joking, half not).
Correct. Truly hypocrite
These questions should be asked to her on job interview.
Nobody in USA was clamping down on protests that were anti-Russia, anti Uighur, anti whatever. Only when it is anti-Israel are the protests clamped on.
Well is her university funding any of that?
People did speak up. You cannot tell me that you know whether or not she personally did. I know plenty of people who stand up for every cause. Sure, some pick and choose, but I personally think we shouldn't be judging without any evidence. It's not productive
Free speech has it's limit so don't abuse it.
At last know some truths before you show how uninformed you are
around the -- rhymes with "you-know-whos", ya lose. Graduate that.
Why can’t these students are punished and dismissed for disrupting other children’s education ? What the US government is doing ? Today they protest in the name of Palestine and tomorrow they may protest for a separate Islamic state within US . Today if the government doesn’t know to take action on people who disrupt the country tomorrow it gives them courage to take streets for all anti government things
Go back to sleep
Same will be Next Priti Patel ?
Is Graduate such a Big Deal in US ? 😂
THANK U .SPEAK UP AGAINST GENOCIDE
She is sister of Ridhhi Patel Hussain.
Birds of a feather flock together...
@true3554 Lock them up!
If a Hamas-supporting student had attended the graduation ceremony, would she have been able to speak?
Drama Queen must be Indian
ANOTHER PERSON OF COLOR BEST STUDENT IN CLASS !!!
truth always reveled
What about intolerance of protesters towards people who do not agree with them? Protest is ok but no occupation of public spaces, buildings with out necessary permission from authorities and their destruction.
She's like a child throwing a tantrum. "Mom, do you hear me?" I miss the 90's.
These are left brigade from India... and in India we do not give any importance to them
Reality is, this speech will follow her on every job interview.
Unfortunately, we live in a world where corporations reward bigoted radical extremists like her.
Yes, and I would hire her BECAUSE OF IT. Because it shows that she has a conscience.
@@andreaandrea6716 No you wouldn't. You say that because you don't yet think like an employer who has no interest in hiring perpetually offended children who have been indoctrinated to believe they are entitled to a safe space from real life and that victimhood is the ultimate path to supreme wisdom.
@@andreaandrea6716 You dont have a conscience if you’re an antisemitic terry supporter.
@@andreaandrea6716not everyone may feel the same, especially if the shareholders or executives have sympathy for Israel.
Her parents hail from the land of Mahatma Gandhi, who employed the method of civil disobedience to take the British Empire down! My heart is with the Israelis and Palestinians who suffer under the terror of Netanyahu and Hamas!
lukewarm
The same Ghandi who led the Khalifat (Caliphate) movement in India and was responsible for creating the Islamic State of Pakistan?
Uneducated any ignorant you are👎
This women should watch the movie Ghandi before having done her speech.
The real reason that the British left because they were debt slaves to America after the war and had to focus on fighting the cold war under the US terms. Their decision to leave had less to do with Gandhi and they departed from many other nations within this same timeframe for the the same reason.
Harvard denied diplomas to 13 students for participating in a pro-Palestine protest on campus. Just as there are laws of the land, every university has its own rules that must be followed. In the name of freedom of speech, students sometimes overlook the importance of adhering to these rules.
but they are funding an ongoing genocide with the money they have to pay?

Who is this we? You mean terrorist supporters?
