On April 6, I attended the “Caterpillar Referendum Teach-In” event hosted by Princeton Committee on Palestine (PCP) and Students for Prison Education, Abolition, and Reform (SPEAR). As a Jew, I was appalled. Appalled by the false claims. Appalled by the proclamation of “From the river to the sea” (an explicit call to erase the only […]
