Tulane Students Disrupt IDF Event, Resist Police Repression

On the night of Monday, November 3, 60 Tulane students and community members gathered for a noise demonstration to protest the first stop of a national “Combat on Campus Tour” of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers. The IDF event was hosted by Tulane Students Supporting Israel (SSI) at the Chabad Center of Louisiana near Tulane University’s campus.

Protesters, called together by Together United Louisiana Students for a Democratic Society (TUL SDS), banged pots, pans and drums to disrupt the two IDF soldiers who came to share “their firsthand stories from October 7 and the war that followed.”
