The Green Party presidential candidate was among more than 80 protesters arrested at the Washington University in St. Louis.
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein was among dozens arrested at Washington University in St. Louis on Saturday as students continue to protest the Israel-Palestine war on college campuses across the country.More than 80 arrests were made after students, employees and others 'marched to multiple campus locations, pitched tents, and indicated that they did not intend to leave,' university officials said in a statement on Saturday.
Pro-Palestinian protest encampments spread to colleges across the U.S. and abroad in solidarity with students at Columbia University, where more than 100 students were arrested last week after university officials called in police to clear an encampment on campus lawn. Since then, other universities have also moved to shut down student encampments and arrest hundreds of demonstrators.
