AntiSocial

Pro-Palestinian student camps


Listen Later

The debate about protestors calling for their universities to cut ties with Israel.

Encampments of students protesting about Israel’s military action in Gaza have been popping up on campuses across the UK. They’re calling for their institutions to divest from - sell their stakes in - companies linked to the conflict or Israel, but others say they’re demonising the country and stoking antisemitism. How did the movement start and how have universities been responding? What’s the history of political activism around university investments? And what does the law say about pitching tents on university land?

Presenter: Adam Fleming

Producers: Simon Maybin, Simon Tulett, Ellie House, Jameel Shariff
