“[Rümeysa Öztürk’s] only so-called crime is co-authoring an op-ed centering the humanity of all people.”

Mehdi speaks with representative Ayanna Pressley on the detainment of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts University student arrested for writing an op-ed on Palestine. Pressley shares details on the human rights violations committed by the ICE detention facility including lack of medical attention, no religious accommodations and the forceful removal of Rumeysa’s hijab.
