They remained for 33 hours until University President Minouche Shafik authorized the New York Police Department to sweep the encampment, resulting in their arrests. Join reporters Lara-Nour Walton and Sophia Cordoba in living the sounds of the first “Gaza Solidarity Encampment.” ​​Credits • Edited by Sophia Cordoba • Produced by Sophia Cordoba • Music by Eva Scholz-Carlson • Illustration by Kelsea Petersen Follow us on Instagram @SpectatorPodcasts and check out our other episodes!
