Dozens of anti-Israel protesters were apprehended by law enforcement officials at Emory University on Thursday, following a turbulent confrontation that involved at least one professor being forcibly detained and handcuffed, as captured in an online video.
The incident, documented by CNN and shared widely on social media, portrayed a scene of pandemonium on the Atlanta campus as police officers intervened at the makeshift tent city established by demonstrators early in the day.

The ensuing struggle on the grass saw Fohlin resisting arrest, exclaiming, “Oh my god!” as she identified herself as a professor, while fellow protesters hurled derogatory remarks and insults towards law enforcement officers.
Following the arrest of 28 individuals, Emory University President Gregory L. Fenves released a statement condemning the “highly organized outside protesters” responsible for the violence, expressing deep concern over the situation.
Fenves expressed sorrow over the events at Emory, denouncing the protestors’ organized arrival on campus and their subsequent disruptive actions in the aftermath of recent hateful incidents.
An additional video from the mass arrest featured a woman, identified as Noelle McAfee, chair of the philosophy department at Emory, being escorted by a tactical-gear-clad Atlanta police officer with her hands restrained behind her back.
The campus demonstrations against Israel have not been isolated incidents, as over 500 protesters have faced arrest at various universities across the country, ranging from Massachusetts to California. NYU and Columbia witnessed the highest number of arrests, with other noteworthy busts occurring at Yale, the University of Southern California, Ohio State University, Indiana University Bloomington, and Emory.

SO PROTESTING FOR BLACK LIVES MATTER AND THE DRUG INDUCED SUICIDE OF GEORGE FLOYD IS FREE SPEECH AND FREEDOM OF ASSEMBLE. HOWEVER, PROTESTING AGINST ISRAEL AND THE ROTHSCHILD’S FOUNDING OF THIS ZIONIST JEWEL IN THE MIDDLE OF A MOSLEM SEWAGE LAGOON IS HATEFUL AND A RIOT…
Next time break her arm. This is supposed to be a “professor” that should be setting a good example for her entitled snowflakes, not a Marxist one. Next stop for this self absorbed moron should be a jail cell for a month or two while she awaits trial. The next time anybody gets arrested be sure to yell out that you are a professor because it worked for her…LOL.
