Anti-Israel activist teaching at Columbia amid controversy over pro-Palestine protestsA pro-Palestine graduate student at Columbia University who supported the anti-Israel demonstrations in the spring is teaching a class at the university.The student is Johannah King-Slutzky, and she will be teaching a course on “Contemporary Western Civilization” this fall, as reported by the National Review.During the spring semester, King-Slutzky fielded questions from reporters near Hamilton Hall, a building which the pro-Palestine demonstrators occupied for an extended period of time.During her press conference, King-Slutzky advocated that the Columbia administration send assistance to the pro-Palestine demonstrators, specifically by providing what she called “basic humanitarian aid.”“It’s ultimately a question of what kind of community and obligation Columbia feels it has to its students,” King-Slutzky said.“Do you want students to die of dehydration and starvation or get severely ill, even if they disagree with you?” King-Slutzky continued. “If the answer is ‘no,’ then you should allow basic . . . I mean, it’s crazy to say because we’re on an Ivy League campus, but this is, like, basic humanitarian aid we’re asking for. Like, could people please have a glass of water?”Campus Reform reported earlier this year that, during that same protest, a banner inscribed with the word “INTIFADA” was hung from Hamilton Hall.King-Slutzky is a student of English & Comparative Literature at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
