Voices for Justice: Activism and Loss

This chapter reflects on the emotional resonance of a tragic 9-1-1 call while exploring the power of student activism at Columbia University in advocating for Palestinian rights. It highlights personal stories of loss, the significance of artistic expression in conveying struggles, and the complexities of negotiations with university officials regarding pro-Palestinian protests. The discussion culminates in the examination of a new documentary, 'The Encampments,' which captures the essence of student solidarity and the fight for justice amid systemic challenges.
