Regarding the protests on U.S. colleges and universities nationwide, there are two things Pro-Palestinian activists can do

1. Stop proving the point people have that antisemitism is a problem within the movement. And yes I know that there are Jewish students in the Pro-Palestinian movement showing their solidarity for Gaza who say they haven't been mistreated but that doesn't make the situation any better. From students or even non students (as their faces are hidden), threatening Jewish students with many more October 7ths while ironically calling them "Nazi B*tches", to them being ridiculed, harassed, and even blamed for a war/conflict they have no control over that's in the middle east, students who are apart of the Pro-Palestinian movement should reflect on if antisemitism is something they truly support and excluding those who go out of their way to target their Jewish peers.

2. Realize that sympathizing with Hamas gets them nowhere. Whether you accept it or not, what Hamas did was horrific, how Hamas treats its own civilians is horrific, from some of these activists chanting "Hamas We love you. We support your rockets to" or yelling "We are all Hamas" to passerbys doesn't help their cause. It's a question of, do you want Palestine to truly be free or do you want Hamas to continue being a nuance?
