College Students Urge NYS To Halt Support For Israel Until A Ceasefire

This week’s peace bucket on Hudson Mohawk Magazine is divided into two sections. The first half reports on a rally organized by college students at the State Capitol on Monday April 15 to call on the SUNY administration, the Governor and state lawmakers, and Comptroller Tom DiNapoli to halt doing business and investing in Israel at least until they stop the genocide in Gaza. We hear from Samira Sangare with Black Lives Matter from Saratoga; Adrian Antonioli from Skidmore College; Peter LaVenia, a SUNY professor and co-chair of the Green Party of New York State, and Eyad Alkurabi of the Queer Palestinian Empowerment Network. In the second half we hear from Fred Nagel, as part of his weekly Activist Radio segment from the Vassar College radio station. With Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
