Academic staff occupy lobby of Greenwich Village campus building in support of students’ demands for divestment from Israel
The first faculty-led Gaza solidarity encampment protest in the US was established on Wednesday night at New York’s New School campus.
Nearly two dozen professors and lecturers at the New York City college pitched tents and unrolled sleeping bags in the lobby of an academic building located in Greenwich Village in Manhattan in support of their students, and against Israel’s attack on Gaza and their university’s financial ties to Israel.
