Students who carried out encampments on US campuses understood the stakes

We are joined by Kei Pritsker, who co-directed The Encampments with Michael T. Workman. The new feature documentary is an intimate portrait of the global student movement ignited at Columbia University in the spring of 2024, to protest their institutions’ complicity in Israel's genocide.

We watch and discuss some excerpts from the film and how it casts light on Israel lobby fabrications about campus anti-Semitism that are the pretext for the ongoing government crackdown on free speech.

This is a segment from The Electronic Intifada's livestream on day 573 of the Gaza genocide. Ali Abunimah, Nora Barrows-Friedman, Jon Elmer and Asa Winstanley were joined by journalist Ruwaida Amer live from the Gaza Strip, and journalist Kei Pritsker of Breakthrough News.
