Columbia University Cornel West arrived to Columbia and hopped the fence of the south lawn, to massive applause (and some kids asking “Who is that?”).

“Use your platform for peace!” someone tells him as he readies to hop. “And justice!” he adds.

🚨UPDATE: Cornel West has joined the students occupying the West Lawn at Columbia University in support and solidarity with the students arrested in the Gaza Solidarity Encampment and the Palestinian struggle!!!
