This week, Roqayah and Kumars are joined by two Boston-based student organizers for an update on the Palestine solidarity movement on US college campuses. Lea Kayali is a law student and activist with the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) and Harvard Law School Justice for Palestine, and Mohamed Mohamed is a graduate student and activist with the Coalition Against Apartheid (CAA) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Lea and Mohamed discuss their personal paths to organizing, the repression they’ve faced on their campuses since Oct. 7th from their university administrations and beyond, and how Palestine solidarity became the defining political issue for a generation of student activists.
Follow Lea on Twitter @huriya_lea as well as orgs like @MIT_CAA and the undergraduate Harvard Palestine Solidarity Committee (HarvardPSC) to keep up with the latest campaigns and actions on their campuses.
