Abstract

The article explores how the student protest in Hamilton Hall at Columbia University in 1968, where U.S. President Joe Biden studied law 56 years ago still haunts him as modern-day protesters occupy the same building to voice their outrage over Israel's war in Gaza. Cited are Biden's condemnation of antisemitism directed at Jewish students, two political dangers posed by the protests to Biden, and how Republicans are trying to turn the protests to their advantage.
