At pro-Palestinian rally, University of Chicago students demand divestment from Israel
CHICAGO -- Some University of Chicago students came out Friday to echo the chants that have been heard across many college campuses over the past week – calling on their university to cut ties with Israel in the wake of the Israel -Hamas War. The organizers are demanding the University of Chicago end all partnerships with Israel i institutions – including their ties with any collaborative research, exchange programs, or funding of organizations they claim sell weapons to Israel .
Some professors came to show their support of students exercising their First Amendment right to protest. 'It's the right thing to do, right? That's the most important thing. It's just a myth that only students do, or should care about something, like the death; the murder of 34,000 people.' CBS 2 asked if the protesters had any intention of starting an encampment at the U of C. They said they weren't sure.
