Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich has defended students who are protesting Israel's war in Gaza on college campuses across the country.'Let's be clear about a few things. Antisemitism should have no place in America—not on college campuses or anywhere else,' Reich, a professor of public policy at University of California Berkeley, said in a video posted on X, formerly Twitter.
As the death toll continues to mount in Gaza, students at Columbia University last week set up an encampment on the university's lawn to protest the war in Gaza and demand the school divest from 'companies and institutions that profit from Israeli apartheid, genocide and occupation in Palestine.
