Buildings at Columbia, Cal Poly Humboldt and Pomona have also been taken over recently by anti-Israel activists
Pro-Palestinian Rhode Island School of Design students seized their administration building on Monday night and barricaded themselves in.
Campus leaders gave them a Tuesday morning deadline to disperse but the activists remain inside.
A video posted on X shows students shimmy food up with a rope ladder to feed the activist students, who demand the art school cut all financial ties with Israel and condemn the country publicly for alleged “genocide.” They’ve reportedly taken over the second story of the building, which houses the president’s office and other financial offices.
“A livestream by the organizers showed protesters gathered in a corridor on the second floor of the building, chanting ‘Free, free Palestine,’ as security guards inside a room appeared to prevent them from entering it. Videos showed other protesters gathered outside the building,” the New York Times reported.
