**Recorded on May 22nd, 2024** In this episode of The Resistance Report, we delve into the powerful wave of student-led protests known as the Student Intifada, which has swept across global campuses in a fervent call for Palestinian rights. Abdullah Shehadeh hosts Olive, a New York-based seminarian and activist, to explore the dynamics of this movement and its impact on Palestinian liberation and the situation in Gaza. Olive shares firsthand insights from the student protests at Columbia University, where the movement gained significant traction. We discuss key statistics, such as the impressive number of global encampments and student arrests, and the unique characteristics of these protests compared to previous movements.
