For over seven months, a dominant conversation in the U.S. news media has been about alleged and increased antisemitism on American campuses - culminating in the coverage around student encampments.

The “Gaza solidarity encampment” at Columbia University, in particular, has received a lot of attention which sparked encampments across the country -- as well as university-backed police repression and violence.

In this interview, AJ+ speaks to Dr. Bruce Robbins, a Jewish professor at Columbia University who supported students protesting Columbia University’s investments in companies and programs that uphold Israeli apartheid and the genocide in Gaza.
