YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill goes in on the ICE arrest of Mohsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian grad student at Columbia University, who was detained at his citizenship interview and now faces deportation.
Mohsen had been living in the U.S. legally for 10 years, speaking out for peace in Palestine and against antisemitism. Still, he got caught in what looks like a targeted political takedown. Hill connects the dots between Trump’s crackdown on student activism, anti-Palestinian surveillance, and the broader attack on dissent across college campuses.
Columbia already folded after the feds pulled $400M in funding—now, students like Mohsen are getting punished just for protesting. With support from Bernie Sanders and Peter Welch, pressure is growing for his release. But the bigger question is: If ICE can do this to him, who’s next?
