Anti-war Protests in US: Rallies held in New York to support detained students

In New York, several rallies continued into the night, including a march that went off campus.
Police cleared out demonstrators at Columbia and at the City University of New York.
About 300 people were arrested.
Students across NYC, like at Fordham University, continue sit-ins despite arrests, motivated by a quest for justice and an end to the Gaza war.
The pro-Palestinian rallies have sparked intense campus debate over where school officials should draw the line between freedom of expression and hate speech. Students protesting Israel’s military offensive in Gaza, including some Jewish peace activists, have said they are being censured as anti-semitic merely for criticizing the Israeli government or for expressing support for Palestinian rights.
