I Am a Jewish Student at Columbia. Here’s What Happened.

In this episode of the Mail Time podcast, host Daniel Mael speaks with Lishi Baker, a junior at Columbia University, about the recent surge of anti-Israel sentiment on campus, particularly following the October 7th events. They discuss a library incident where students protested, the involvement of student organizations, and the broader implications of anti-Semitism in academic settings. Lishi shares her experiences in classes that promote anti-Zionist narratives and the challenges faced by pro-Israel students. The conversation also touches on the role of pro-Israel influencers, the response of university administration to anti-Semitism, and the future direction of Columbia's governance regarding student protests and activism.
