The Party Girls crew is joined by "C," a student organizer from Columbia University, to talk about the protest encampment that touched off a wave of activity across the country as students and non-students alike organize against genocide in Gaza.

Then: a brief history of the 1968 student occupation of Columbia and the 2008 occupation of the New School. What lessons can modern day militants draw from these examples?
