DHS DETAINS COLUMBIA STUDENT! DEMAND THEIR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 🔈

Last night, Department of Homeland Security agents detained a Palestinian student at Columbia University, following the student and his pregnant spouse into their building in Morningside Heights, in Columbia University housing. DHS agents abducted and detained Khalil without the demonstration of a warrant or officially filed charges. Agents told Mahmoud that the State Dept. had revoked his student visa., with the arresting agent making the claim that the US State Department had “revoked that too,” in reference to his green card.

At the time of this posting, Khalil is being held in ICE detention in Elizabeth, New Jersey.

Eric Adams tried to run, but he can’t hide. After learning that the Palestinian and Muslim community would confront his sham iftar, he scrambled to change the location just hours before it began.

Take autonomous action. Disrupt Adams’ disgraceful photo-op.

Just this week, Columbia announced its intention to continue supporting the genocide of Palestinians by repressing students fighting for Palestinian liberation. The University has revoked the degrees of graduates, suspended and expelled even more students, and allowed ICE to harass its students on campus on top of repeated University-sanctioned police brutality and arrests.

Meanwhile, the University continues to fund the total siege of Gaza and intensifying violence in the West Bank.

It is our duty to disrupt! It is our duty to care for each other! WE MUST FIGHT BACK!

REINSTATE OUR STUDENTS NOW. DIVEST FROM GENOCIDE NOW. FREE PALESTINE. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Columbia University helped ICE kidnap Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil for speaking out against genocide. He was taken from his student housing and is now illegally detained in Louisiana—without charge.

Meanwhile, Palestinians are under attack everywhere. Gaza is being starved and bombed in silence. For the last two weeks, Israel has blocked food, water, and electricity. Dozens have been murdered in just the past few days. In the West Bank, settlers and soldiers are escalating home raids, killings, and mass arrests.

We will not stand by. Join us in demanding:
ICE & NYPD OFF CAMPUS
🔥 DIVEST FROM GENOCIDE
🚨 FREE MAHMOUD & ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS
🇵🇸 FREE PALESTINE—FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA!

COLUMBIA/BARNARD, YOU CAN’T HIDE!

📍Columbia/Barnard, NYC

This week, Columbia and Barnard suspended, expelled, and revoked degrees from a total of 22 students for protesting the genocide in Palestine. In a single day, Columbia issued 9 expulsions. Last weekend, Columbia University helped ICE kidnap a Palestinian student, Mahmoud Khalil, from his home. ICE is currently detaining him in Louisiana. Yesterday, only one day before contract bargaining was set to begin, Columbia expelled the President of UAW 2710 Student Workers of Columbia Union.

The university recognizes and is terrified by the power of the students and of all people in solidarity with Palestinian liberation!

1️⃣REINSTATE ALL STUDENTS NOW
2️⃣ICE & NYPD OFF CAMPUS
