Black Agenda Radio · Repression of Palestine Solidarity at Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Part 2

Austin Cole is a graduate student in urban planning and business at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, MIT. He was due to graduate but has been suspended due to his activity with the Palestine Solidarity Encampment which demanded that MIT divest itself of any support of Israel and its ongoing war crimes committed against the people of Gaza. He joins us from Boston to discuss the encampment and his own experience with the attack directed by the state and carried out by MIT and other institutions. This is the second part of a two-part interview. (Part 1)
