Black Agenda Radio · The CUNY 8 Face Charges for Palestine Solidarity Protest

We’re joined by Nora Fayad, one of the CUNY 8. Nora and seven others were charged for their Palestine solidarity protest at City College, a campus in the City University of New York (CUNY) system. On April 30 they were arrested and charged with felony burglary and accused of attempting to enter a campus building without permission. Nora Fayad and others are concerned community members who joined the protests yet are condemned as being "outside agitators." She joins us from New York City to discuss their court case.
