The latest University of Wisconsin regents meeting ended with a string of people being led out in handcuffs.
University Police say they arrested 19 pro-Palestinian protesters at yesterday’s regents meeting. The protesters, from a number of pro-Palestinian campus groups, were there to push the university to divest from Israel. They accuse the UW of ‘war profiteering.’ After the arrests, some protesters accused the police of assaulting them simply for speaking their minds.
