Interview with Fawzia Afzal-Khan, visiting professor in gender and sexuality studies, at Princeton University.

Fawzia Afzal-Khan discusses her recent article, “Student and Faculty Repression on US Campuses: the Palestine Exception,” relating to the reported 600 international students who have had their visas revoked by Trump’s State Department, and the preliminary ruling by a judge in Louisiana that the Trump regime can proceed with its deportation of Palestinian Columbia University graduate student, and green card holder Mahmoud Khalil. She also addresses university administrators response to the Trump regime's threat to defund higher ed institutions that don't comply with orders to eliminate DEI programs, adhere to restrictions on protest, and the micromanagement of hiring faculty, student admissions and curriculum.
