Campus protests where arrests and detainments have taken place since April 18
The fresh wave of student activism against the war in Gaza was sparked by the arrests of at least 108 protesters at Columbia University on April 18, after administrators appeared before Congress and promised a crackdown. Since then, tensions between protesters, universities and the police have risen, prompting law enforcement to take action in some of America’s largest cities.

Violence at a Minneapolis School Hours After ICE Shooting
As Minneapolis reels in the aftermath of a fatal shooting, the city shuts down its public schools following a violent confrontation between federal agents and civilians at a local high school.
-
Just hours after a federal agent fatally shot a woman in her vehicle, we captured these scenes at Roosevelt High School a few miles away. “The first thing I see is six or seven or eight S.U.V.s parked in the street, people in military fatigues, essentially, masks.” “Murderer!” “There were lots of yelling, whistling. It was really chaotic.” It was around 3:30 p.m. Classes had been dismissed and students were trickling out of school. “We were in a staff meeting, talking about the shooting that had happened earlier in the day. Another staff member came in and informed us within about five or 10 minutes of that meeting starting, that the agents were outside.” Teacher Nick Wilson ran out and started filming on his phone. One student said she fled the scene after seeing agents emerging from their cars. “We see them tackle teachers on the floor. And that’s when I was like, ‘Oh my God.’ I ran because I was scared for my life.” In a statement to The New York Times, the Department of Homeland Security said agents were chasing a U.S. citizen, who they said had rammed his vehicle into a government vehicle before driving and stopping in a school zone. D.H.S. said that it was not targeting the school, its students or its staff. The Times independently confirmed that one educator was detained by federal agents and has since been released. “It made me not want to come back to school no more because this is so terrifying. So yeah, that’s how I feel.” Minneapolis Public Schools told The Times the incident is currently under investigation and that all M.P.S. schools are closed until Monday out of an abundance of caution. “I’m still kind of in shock that was something that happened at this place I’ve called home for the last 14, 15 years of my life.”
