Katherine Francke of #Columbia Law School on how her defense of #student #protests against Israel's killing in #Gaza has led to the end of her teaching and faculty roles.
Harassment by colleagues, students trying to trick her into social-media-ready misstatements, the university president's abandoning her to the Congressional wolves to save her own skin...
"Rather than defend the role of a university in a democracy, in
fostering critical debate, research, and learning around matters of vital public concern, and in educating the next generation with the tools to become engaged citizens, Columbia University’s leadership has demonstrated a willingness to collaborate with the very enemies of our academic mission."
And the slaughter in Gaza continues.
