Atlanta, April 26 (RHC)-- In the U.S., at Emory in Atlanta, a brutal police crackdown led to at least 28 arrests.  Among those arrested was economics professor Caroline Fohlin, who was knocked to the ground by a police officer, while another held her down and bound her hands with zip ties.

Meanwhile, students at Columbia -- the epicenter of the student encampment movement -- have filed a civil rights complaint following arrests by NYPD and threats to deploy the National Guard.  Despite the violent crackdown, students vowed to continue their protests. 

Vincent Doehr of UCLA told reporters: “I don’t think that our concerns about our personal safety are at the forefront of our minds right now.  I think at the forefront of our minds is the violence that Palestinians are suffering at the hands of the Israeli state every day these last six months and last, again, almost 80 years.”
