Cornell threatens to deport Pro-Palestine student protester TONIGHT

Momodou Taal is a PHD student at Columbia, traveling on a visa from the UK. So when he led a pro-Palestine protest against Columbia and their donor Boeing, his foreign status was used to attack him. Columbia University now has plans to deport Momodou.

Or, as corporate media would put it:

Now, more protests are erupting across campus as Cornell threatens Momodou with deportation, and while his lawyers are working around the clock to keep him here, his status is in jeopardy. Tonight (Friday) at 5pm is his deadline, so tune in now, follow him on Twitter, and show your support. Let’s hope they can’t get away with this one too.
