1
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: USF administration undeniably are liars. We are supposed to be

2
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: an inclusive school. We came here for diversity. We came

3
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: here to be accepted and to be able to be

4
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 1: told on a day to day basis, we mentioned our

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: brother mac is one of the pillars of our community.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 2: To not be able to embrace him, to not be able.

7
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: To celebrate it's a US ally. We are being equated

8
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: to a terrorist group. We are being told that we

9
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: who are trying to support our friend, our brother, our

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: community leader in one of his greatest accomplishments, in where

11
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: he sacrificed everything, left all his friends, left all his

12
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: family to go fight in a war to save his

13
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: people in the one Jewish state in the entire world.

14
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: There's fifteen million Jews on this planet, and eight million

15
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: of them live in Israel, and he went to go

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: fight them all on his own, with no friends, no backing,

17
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 1: and to be told that he's equivalent to an internationally

18
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: recognized terrorist group.

19
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 2: How are we supposed to be inclusive?

20
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 1: How is the administration telling us that they want to

21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: promote those values and be safe and keep students involved

22
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: when they're telling us that we'll protect all student groups

23
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: except Jews. Jews are not part of the coalition. Jews

24
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: are someone you are more than welcome to be anti

25
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: Semitic against. You're more than welcome to be racist against.

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: We're an Ethno religion. We are someone. We are accepted.

27
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: It is accepted to be hateful to Jews on this campus.

28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,600

Speaker 4: Rapaport Comedy dot com Michael Rapaport Comedy dot com and

85
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 4: as of the recording of this Iron Rapport stereo podcast,

86
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 4: we are one hundred and eighty six days, eight six months,

87
00:05:51,800 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 4: six months into the hostage crisis, six months since October seventh?

88
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 4: Can you believe that shit? And right before I started recording,

89
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 4: there was another negotiation with Hamas, there was another deal

90
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: put in place that Hamas turned down, and sickly and sadly,

91
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 4: part of the deal was for Israel to turn over

92
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 4: I think it was eight hundred terrorists that had been

93
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: in jail, the bottom of the barrel. They want these

94
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 4: people back, eight hundred terrorists. They wanted eight hundred terrorists

95
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 4: for forty hostages. And inevitably Hamas rejected the latest cease

96
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 4: fire hostage for terrorists swap because Hamas has declared this

97
00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 4: is from them. They declared it does not have forty

98
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 4: hostages in custody, which is they don't have forty hostages

99
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 4: in custody, contradicting the previous claims.

100
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: There can't be any negotiation with these people. Let me

101
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 3: tell you something.

102
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 4: Every single thing that comes out of these people's mouth.

103
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 4: Every single thing that comes out of their mother's mouth,

104
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 4: their father's mouth, their friend's mouth, their kid's mouth, their

105
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 4: brother's mouth, their sister's mouth, their.

106
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 3: Stepkid's mouth is a fucking lie.

107
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 4: Every single thing that comes out of Hamasa's mouth is

108
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 4: a fucking lie. Shut that fucking dog up, you hear

109
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 4: that fucking little dog? Yappin Why we would think we

110
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 4: would trust terrorists to begin with? Of course Israel knows,

111
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 4: they know what they're dealing with, the bottom of the

112
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 4: bottom of the barrel, the worst of the worst. Nobody

113
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 4: would trust the local pedophiliac. No one would trust the

114
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 4: local murderer, the local arsonist, the local rapist, the local kidnapper.

115
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 4: If that a person was in your neighborhood, you'd be like,

116
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 4: stay away from that motherfucker, stay away from that person.

117
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 3: He's no good. That's exactly what Amasa is. No good.

118
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 4: Every category pedophiliac, raping, arson, murder, kidnapping, they did it all.

119
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 4: Of course they're lying. Of course they're fucking lying. So

120
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 4: sick of as shit. I'm so sick of Jews being harassed.

121
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 4: I'm so sick and tired of motherfuckers with their free

122
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: Palestine bullshit. This is on them. Unfortunately, they did this

123
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 4: to themselves. If there are innocent civilians there, they did

124
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 4: it to themselves. They voted these people in in.

125
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: Two thousand and five. They support it.

126
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 4: Motherfucker's talking about free Palestine, talking about ceasefire. Ceasefire, You

127
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 4: got it all fucked up. You're talking about ceasefire. See

128
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 4: the way it works is you return the hostages, and

129
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 4: then the abductors, the perpetrators of the crime.

130
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 3: You come out in you're under where with your hands

131
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 3: up and your weapons down.

132
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 4: And the reason why we need you in your underwear

133
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 4: is in case you want to blow yourself up to

134
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 4: become a fake wanna be martyr. Now, there's not one

135
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 4: of these motherfuckers that's ever going to heaven. Anybody that

136
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 4: has anything to do with a monster, there's not going

137
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 4: to heaven. There's no virgins waiting, there's no ceasefire. You

138
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 4: return the hostages, dead or alive, you come out with

139
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 4: your fucking hands up and your weapons down. Then we

140
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 4: cease fire, and then somebody else could deal with the

141
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 4: fucking problem. It ain't Israel's fucking problem that you spent

142
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 4: seventy five fucking years seventy five fucking years focused on

143
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 4: one thing, the eradication and destruction of Israel. Get them,

144
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 4: that's not our fucking problem, that's your that's a you problem.

145
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 4: That's a fucking you problem. Anyway, while I was in Tampa,

146
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 4: I had gotten invited to the Hallal at the University

147
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 4: of Southern Florida. And on this past weekend, I went

148
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 4: and visited about twenty five college students and the people

149
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 4: that work and take care of the Hallal. And I

150
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 4: was not planning on doing a podcast. I was just

151
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 4: planning on going to have a little brunch with the kids,

152
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 4: getting to know the kids, getting to know the climate

153
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 4: of what's going on at the University of Southern Florida.

154
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 4: And like I said, I was just going to talk

155
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 4: to me, to hang out. And what they were telling

156
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 4: me was so insane, so offensive. I could not believe

157
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:08,200
Speaker 4: what I was hearing from all of them. The anti Semitism,

158
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 4: the open, blatant, proud anti Semitism that has gone on

159
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 4: in this university, what's gone on in this neighborhood.

160
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 3: I just said, I have to do so. I have

161
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 3: to share this.

162
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 4: These people need a voice, these kids need a voice,

163
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 4: This story needs to come out.

164
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 3: It's horrendous.

165
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 4: So I just started recording what I was being told

166
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 4: on my phone with their permission, to make sure that

167
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 4: the story gets out to as many people as possible.

168
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 4: And I'm just so sick of the anti Jewishness, anti Semitism.

169
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 3: To any group.

170
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 4: Hatred towards a group of people is never supposed to

171
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 4: be tolerated, but it's status quo at this fucking University

172
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 4: of Southern Florida.

173
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 3: And it didn't just start on October seventh.

174
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 4: And if you or your loved ones are fortunately not

175
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 4: experiencing it in your day to day life, then it's

176
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 4: easy to not know what's going on. It's easy to

177
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 4: be out of mind, out of sight, out of mind

178
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 4: with it. And I'm going to tell you something. This

179
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 4: is the second college I went to. I went to

180
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 4: UC Santa Barbara, and I heard similar stories and my mouth,

181
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 4: I'm like, I can't believe this. That's why I started recording,

182
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 4: because I was like, I cannot fucking believe what these

183
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: kids are telling me. No one should ever be targeted

184
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 4: for their race, their creed, their sex, their religion, or anything,

185
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 4: especially in the United States, the Land of the Free,

186
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 4: the home of the brave, and the Jewish population of

187
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 4: the student body of the University of Southern Florida is

188
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 4: only twelve hundred students, because it's known to be a

189
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 4: hostile environment for Jewish people and Israeli students because it's

190
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 4: surrounding commun unity is heavily Palestinian and an ancient Palestinians

191
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 4: that are going at the Jews in the Israelis.

192
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,559
Speaker 3: It's fucking straight up white.

193
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 4: People who don't like Jews because they don't like themselves.

194
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 3: And because they can.

195
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 4: The only group of people who you could openly target

196
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 4: in the United States. You can't do LGBTQ, can't do

197
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 4: Black people, can't do Asian, can't do disabled people, mentally

198
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 4: disabled people, but it's okay to go after Jews. Unfucking beelievable.

199
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 4: The shit they were telling me at this school. I

200
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 4: couldn't believe what these kids would telling me. These are

201
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 4: young kids eighteen, nineteen, twenty one, twenty two, twenty three,

202
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 4: maybe kids.

203
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: A lot of them girls. They're bullying girls.

204
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 4: A lot of them are The majority of the kids

205
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 4: I met were girls that are getting bullied on a

206
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 4: day to day basis. Spit on, I'm gonna I'm gonna

207
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 4: share with you what I saw i started recording it,

208
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 4: and the amount and the size of the protests that

209
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 4: are going on at USF mirrors many campuses around the country,

210
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 4: and its apparent, and it has been for the last

211
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 4: six months.

212
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 3: What's also apparent is that's not just about Israel.

213
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 4: It's about attacking Jewish global population as a whole. The

214
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 4: Jewish global population as a whole is being harassed and

215
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 4: I'm not down with it. I'm not with it. In

216
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 4: the United States, It's fucking it. It's crazy on US soil.

217
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 4: There is something insidious brewing that wants to make me

218
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 4: bring all of the rapa pack talking to this.

219
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 6: Podcast.

220
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be narrating this segment with these kids and

221
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 4: a couple of the teachers who run the Hellal and

222
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 4: I really want you to share this. I really want

223
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 4: you to listen to this. It's unacceptable, it is un ecceptible.

224
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 7: So Florida has the largest number of undergraduate Jewish students

225
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 7: in the Gun Treasures, and most of our conquarable sister

226
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 7: schools have three, four, five, six, seven thousand Jewish students.

227
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 2: You have, for instance, has ten thousand.

228
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 7: Our campus has approximately twelve hundred. There's a reason for that.

229
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 7: It's known as a hostile environment. It has been for

230
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 7: decades where they can speak at length on that.

231
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's why we're not talked about it as nationally,

232
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: like you might not have heard of us. I think

233
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: it's really important that just because where I'm minority, we're

234
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: just as equal as everyone else on this campus.

235
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 2: We want to be part of the coalition. We want

236
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: to be.

237
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,360
Speaker 1: Allies and to be silenced just because we're small in numbers.

238
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: That isn't fair.

239
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: We want to be treated the same way as on

240
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,479
Speaker 1: any other student group. We want to be involved. We

241
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: just want peace, We want to be loved. We want

242
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: to be able to be participating in campus activities. But

243
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: when people on campus are actively calling for the death

244
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 1: of our friends, our brothers, us it makes it impossible.

245
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: It makes people want to leave, It makes people hurt.

246
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: We just want to be accepted by administration. We just

247
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 1: want to be accepted by our peers and to be

248
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: able to be told this and to be able to

249
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: when kids come and ask me should I come to

250
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: usf if they're Jewish, I have to say no.

251
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 2: I have to say no, and that's hurtful.

252
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: To me, I want my friends to come here, and

253
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: I can't tell them that I can't be proud of

254
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 1: my school.

255
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 3: It's that's fucked up, man.

256
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 4: Were just if you can say what's your name?

257
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: Okay, you can just say your first time.

258
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 5: So we have families tour. They've come to tour and

259
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 5: they've come inside. They're like, how is it being a

260
00:17:59,040 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 5: student here?

261
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 8: Jewish here?

262
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 5: And we have to tell them since October seventh, they

263
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 5: even before.

264
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 9: Don't come here.

265
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 5: There's families that have messaged hellel because they've gone around

266
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 5: and they've seen the chalking and they say this is disgusting,

267
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 5: or they've become upset from it just by touring because

268
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 5: they see how anti semitic it is and they don't

269
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 5: even go here. There's people like other people have mentioned

270
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 5: that they warn us about protests and they're in different

271
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 5: states away and they know because we just They always

272
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 5: reach out to the news, they always reach out to

273
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 5: the school newspaper. They're always constantly in contact with somebody

274
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 5: that can elevate their voices. And that's how these things

275
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 5: just grow.

276
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 8: And you would think for a university that prides itself

277
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 8: on diversity, that they would want to accept the diversity,

278
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 8: and at least for me, like the diversity of USF

279
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 8: was a big attraction point.

280
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 3: But it was almost as.

281
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 8: Soon as I got here that I established myself at

282
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 8: Hillel and started experience experiencing anti Semitism. And even though

283
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 8: I grew up with it, this was unlike anything I'd

284
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 8: ever heard of or experienced or seen. And and you know,

285
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 8: when when the when hate was happening against Asian people

286
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 8: and island Pacific island Pacific ers, USF was so quick

287
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 8: to put out a statement and send out an email,

288
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 8: a mass email, but they can't even condemn Hamas without

289
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,959
Speaker 8: collaborating with Hillout to even help them write the email.

290
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 8: And then even then they're not even putting out what

291
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 8: we even like talk to them about. So it's just

292
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 8: like a complete backstab, especially with the bomb threat to

293
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 8: say that there was no legitimate threat, like, yes, there

294
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,719
Speaker 8: was no explosive device found, but you're playing with people's

295
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 8: lives here, and your students don't feel safe. And when

296
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 8: we go and talk to student government, they're so unprofessional

297
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 8: they can't even keep themselves from making faces as we're

298
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 8: talking to them in a room of a couple people,

299
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 8: and let alone understand the anti semitic nature of a

300
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 8: BDS resolution, and it just it continues to get worse

301
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 8: and worse and worse. And this BDS resolution that is

302
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 8: trying to be passed right now, if it continues to

303
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 8: go through, which were hopeful a dozen things are really

304
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 8: going to amp up here.

305
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 3: Can you tell me again about the bomb threat and

306
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 3: just say your first.

307
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 8: Name, Sarah. So the bomb threat happens October eleventh. October eleventh,

308
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 8: so just a couple of days after October seventh. I

309
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 8: personally wasn't in the building, but there were a couple

310
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 8: of students and staff in the building and a comment

311
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 8: on our Instagram, on one of our social media posts

312
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,160
Speaker 8: was discovered basically saying you have fifteen minutes to get

313
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 8: out of the building. There was police, a police officer

314
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 8: nearby that was flagged down and the comment was shown

315
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 8: to the police officer and they said, you guys need

316
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 8: to get out of the building. They had police and

317
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 8: the explosive sniffing dog come. They did clear the building

318
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 8: and let people back in the building. And there were

319
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 8: two mass emails that were sent out to the university,

320
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 8: the first one saying that the building was cleared and

321
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 8: Nold was cleared and that we were back in the building,

322
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,239
Speaker 8: basically outing us for another potential threat. And then the

323
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 8: second one that kind of was like case closed was

324
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 8: the one that said there was no legitimate threat and

325
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 8: that it was a misunderstanding between two individuals conversing on

326
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 8: social media, which is just so beyond the truth because

327
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 8: it wasn't a conversation. It was one person taking time

328
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 8: out of their day to comment that there was a

329
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 8: bomb in the building and to threaten our lives in

330
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 8: that nature, and to say that there was no legitimate threat,

331
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 8: and they even said that it didn't pose a threat.

332
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 9: To a university building or a community.

333
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 8: And so it's basically saying that we're not a part

334
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 8: of the USF community and we're not affiliated with USF,

335
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 8: which we are, like we're labeled as USF.

336
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 10: Heilo.

337
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 4: The thing that really got me going first is there

338
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 4: was a bomb threat towards these Jewish kids, and for

339
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 4: them to be put in position where they needed police

340
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 4: protection on a daily basis is ridiculous.

341
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 3: A bomb threat online in phone.

342
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 4: Calls and when I got to the campus, when I

343
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 4: got to the HELLEL there were cops there. It shouldn't

344
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 4: get to a point where they need to have cops

345
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 4: outside a hellal on a quiet Saturday afternoon, which is

346
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 4: what and when I went there, and unfortunately the University

347
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 4: of Southern Florida administration hasn't helped anything.

348
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna let the kids break it down. Check

349
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 3: this out.

350
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 5: We were both in the building during the threat, and

351
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 5: afterwards we went to the police department and we were like,

352
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 5: how could you write this?

353
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,239
Speaker 9: How could you say this?

354
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 5: People are calling us liars, people are saying this is

355
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 5: this And they waited for our director to leave the

356
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 5: room and they looked at us and they said.

357
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 9: Well, how would you have written that email? What would

358
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 9: you have said?

359
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 5: And I said, I'm sorry, but that's not my job.

360
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 5: It's not my job to write an email. And regarding

361
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 5: a bomb threat, I'm twenty. I was just in the

362
00:22:58,840 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 5: building of a bomb threat.

363
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 9: Are you kidding?

364
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 8: Like theyta said that we should be fortunate to have

365
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 8: police security.

366
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, I just want to point out no other

367
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 11: student organization needs police security. I just think it's kind

368
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 11: of funny, like when you walked in, the cops were

369
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 11: like you didn't even think twice about it. There were

370
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 11: just cops outside our building and no other student group

371
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 11: needs police protection. But you know, the university recognizes enough

372
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 11: to give us police protection but won't say a single

373
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 11: thing about like, oh yeah, you guys are like, you

374
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 11: guys need the protection. You guys are under that threat

375
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 11: and that's why we're giving it to you. No, they

376
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 11: just give it to us, and they're like, hey, we're

377
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 11: not gonna say anything about it. We're not gonna acknowledge

378
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 11: the fact that you guys are under a threat. And

379
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 11: I don't know, I just think it's a little bit

380
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 11: of a like funny thing that at every other university

381
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 11: student like student organizations are all treated with respect, but

382
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 11: for us, we can't even get the time of day

383
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 11: from the school to say, yeah, we at least see

384
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 11: that you guys need this help.

385
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 12: Like a minute, straation says they're indifferent, but really it's

386
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 12: like our administration is not only amplifying but helping the

387
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 12: anti semitism. They're complicit with the anti semitism that is

388
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 12: on campus, and they just they won't do a thing president.

389
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 12: Our president won't do a thing, The DNA students won't

390
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 12: do a thing, our suit of conduct won't do a thing.

391
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 12: They are just ignoring US and saying, you know what

392
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 12: you deal with that it's fine.

393
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 3: Have you have you filed actual complaints?

394
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 12: Yes, yeah, probably over one hundred.

395
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 13: I have filed probably thirty. I've talked directly with the

396
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 13: editor for our school's newspaper. If you were to look

397
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 13: for a place where there is rampant anti Semitism online,

398
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 13: either look at the comments section of one of our

399
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 13: student groups for you know, for us or look at

400
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 13: our USF newspaper, our online newspaper, and the comments underneath

401
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,439
Speaker 13: any post, even if they're related to Palace Stein or

402
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 13: Israel or anything, people just find it to be a

403
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 13: comfortable place for them to just call for the destruction

404
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 13: of Israel, to call for a second Holocaust, to call

405
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 13: for the destruction of Judaism. And you have people silently

406
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 13: liking their comments, reposting, and we are trying to win

407
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 13: a physical war, but we are actively losing a digital

408
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 13: war that is poisoning the minds of people at USF,

409
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 13: people that you have been with for you know, I'm

410
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 13: a senior, I graduate this semester. I've known people for

411
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 13: four years and to have to block them, remove them,

412
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 13: get them out of my life because they will stop

413
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 13: at nothing then to just diminish you to just an

414
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 13: angry Jew who doesn't understand what's really going on.

415
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 9: And it's frustrating.

416
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 6: After having an actual conversation with our president and an

417
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 6: ex president that asked, is there actually.

418
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 9: Anti Semitism on canvas?

419
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,400
Speaker 6: They use the word actually thinking that like, oh, it's

420
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 6: a joke. They're just joking to get our attention, and

421
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,919
Speaker 6: we're going to do nothing about it. And when I

422
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 6: explained so many situations, I explained a journalism professor spewing

423
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 6: wrong facts about the history of the conflict to a

424
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 6: class of reporters like people that are going into their

425
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 6: journalism field. She was spewing wrong facts. And I told

426
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 6: our president about this. She goes, I don't think she

427
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 6: meant it like that. And it's like hurtful as a

428
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 6: student and to see all that anti semitism and stuff,

429
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 6: and they acknowledge that it's there, but they will do

430
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 6: nothing about it, but they will stand at the protests.

431
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 8: I think also one of the most just like heartbreaking

432
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 8: things is we can't even have like a candlelight vigil

433
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 8: or a shabbot or stand in solidarity with the hostages

434
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 8: without some sort of disturbance or car driving buyer, or

435
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 8: someone's spewing pro home aus profanity, whatever it is, and

436
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 8: let alone not only stand in solidarity with the hostage,

437
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 8: but like we have a brother who's fighting, I'm gonna

438
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 8: try to not get emotional because he's the most amazing

439
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 8: person in the world and we're not even being given

440
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 8: this space to stand in solidarity with the people in

441
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 8: Israel and with the hostages and let alone feel safe

442
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 8: on campus. That's that's completely out of the picture, you know,

443
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 8: with with having a leadership position at Hell, I'm scared

444
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 8: to go in my classes. I've had to withdraw from classes.

445
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 8: We've had students fail out of classes, especially last semester,

446
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 8: retract graduates, grad student grad school applications, and it is

447
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 8: just heartbreaking.

448
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 9: I did mine.

449
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 14: It's just unfair that we pay all of this money

450
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 14: to go to this university and we don't have the

451
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 14: equal opportunity to use our spaces. I get texts on

452
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 14: a weekly basis from both juice and non juice ying.

453
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 9: Don't go to the library.

454
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 14: There's a protest, there's a sit in at the Starbucks,

455
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 14: there's a sit in at the student center, And where

456
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 14: do we go? We can't lock ourselves inside the Hillel building,

457
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 14: which is unfortunately what we had to do after October

458
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,159
Speaker 14: seventh for months, and that's what led.

459
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 9: Us to failing our classes. We didn't have access to.

460
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 14: The resources that the pro Palestinian or the other kids

461
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 14: on campus feel that they have, that they're entitled to,

462
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 14: but we're not entitled to that because we're Jews.

463
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 9: You were all scared to go to our classes. We

464
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 9: were all scared to be on campus.

465
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 6: I had to email professors and be like, your class

466
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 6: is at a time where I have to walk past

467
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 6: the library and see a protest, and that's going to

468
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 6: send me into a mental spiral.

469
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 9: I can't make it to your class.

470
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 6: And thankfully this professor was understanding, but there was another

471
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 6: professor who wasn't. And it's hurtful to see professors and

472
00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 6: that are like they all say like we're here for

473
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 6: our students, like we want to help you to pass

474
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 6: this class that just don't give a shit.

475
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 9: It's also just.

476
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 12: That every pro Palestinian protest, no one will go up

477
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,479
Speaker 12: to them. None of us will go up there and

478
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 12: just be like, why are you doing this, You're a terrorist.

479
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 9: We don't call them out.

480
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 12: We had one vigil and some guy just start screaming

481
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 12: anti Semitic things that our habbad director, our helleal director.

482
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 9: Where the fruit of the poisonous tree? We're discussing antif

483
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 9: six million wasn't enough, like we've had heard all of

484
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 9: these slurs.

485
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 15: If there is a protest every single day, every week,

486
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 15: every single day, I have to walk by a protest

487
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 15: or see a poster every single building, there is say

488
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 15: forgetting motion.

489
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 12: There is posters in our classroom saying just you're killing

490
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 12: these gossins.

491
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 9: Israel should not be here. Just anti Semitism everywhere it is.

492
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 2: If you're Jewish, you should not come to this school

493
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 2: and that's it.

494
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 8: And chalk on the sidewalk saying, like more dead journalists

495
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 8: than World War two is God knows, however many thousand people?

496
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 2: Is that not enough for you?

497
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 8: Bombs do not equal peace, and like we can't even

498
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 8: go to our classes and not see a single thing

499
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 8: and not see like anything, Like there's always more than

500
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 8: one thing on our way to classes, and it's just

501
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 8: it's not safe.

502
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 3: Six million wasn't enough, huh.

503
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 4: Yelling that it kids is ridiculous and should be deemed

504
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 4: a hate crime. Six million wasn't enough because they're referring

505
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 4: to the Holocaust. You say that to a young girl,

506
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 4: six million wasn't enough. One of the members of a

507
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 4: HELLEO went to Israel to join the IDF to fight

508
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 4: these students. Wouldn't know what the fucking means to fight

509
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 4: these bullies. They wouldn't know what it means to want

510
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 4: to stand up to join the IDF, to go back

511
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 4: in the IDAF when you don't have to. The kid

512
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 4: that went back in to the IDEAF, they all know

513
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 4: somebody that was killed or kidnapped or other soldiers who

514
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 4: are fighting in the IDF. Normal college community, a normal

515
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 4: college environment, student body would rally around somebody like that.

516
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 4: He would be deemed a hero, right, normal that would happen.

517
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 4: But instead there's a text, there's assaults.

518
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: USF administration undeniably are liars. We're supposed to be an

519
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: inclusive school. We came here for diversity. We came here

520
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: to be accepted and to be able to be told

521
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: on a day to day basis. We mentioned our brother

522
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: Mac is one of the pillars of our community.

523
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 2: To not be able to embrace him, to not be able.

524
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: To celebrate it's a US ally. We are being equated

525
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: to a terrorist group. We are being told that we

526
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: who are trying to support our friend, our brother, our

527
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: community leader in one of his greatest accomplishments, in where

528
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: he sacrificed everything, left all his friends, left all his

529
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: family to go fight in a war to save his

530
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: people in the one Jewish state in the entire world.

531
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 2: There's fifteen million Jews.

532
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: On this planet, and eight million of them live in Israel,

533
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: and he went to go fight them all on his own,

534
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: with no friends, no backing, and to be told that

535
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: he's equivalent to an internationally recognized terrorist group.

536
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:26,719
Speaker 2: How are we supposed to be inclusive?

537
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: How is the administration telling us that they want to

538
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: promote those values and be safe and keep students involved

539
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: when they're telling us that we will protect all student

540
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: groups except Jews. Jews are not part of the coalition.

541
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: Jews are someone you are more than welcome to be

542
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: anti Semitic against. You're more welcome to be racist against.

543
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: We're inn ethno religion. We are someone we are accepted.

544
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: It is accepted to be hateful to Jews on this campus.

545
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 1: US of administration is liars.

546
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 16: Who was able to articulate, like the what you were

547
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 16: saying about the nineteen forty eight fe.

548
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,479
Speaker 3: So the school is can you just say who you are?

549
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 3: If you could just say your my name is Sylvie, okay.

550
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 7: The school is located in an area with a very

551
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 7: large and vibrant Palestinian community, and uh it surrounds it

552
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 7: physically surrounds the campus. And also we have a large

553
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 7: Arab and Palestinian student body, most of whom are very

554
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 7: peace loving, most of whom are not involved with issues

555
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 7: on campus whatsoever. However, there is a very large difference

556
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 7: in numbers between the Jewish student body and the Arab

557
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 7: or Palestinian student body. We are at a massive disadvantage

558
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 7: the numbers game.

559
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 2: There's no way we're.

560
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 7: Going to win, and it impacts our student's ability to

561
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 7: receive equitable representation, equitable care, equitable treatment.

562
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 17: I live off campus and it's probably what I'm most

563
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 17: rateful for because since October seventh, it's literally I go

564
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 17: to my classes, I go home, I go to hellel

565
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 17: I go home because I know I don't feel safe

566
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 17: as a six foot man on campus, and I can

567
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 17: only imagine how my peers feel.

568
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 3: I will put you.

569
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 5: Back on that.

570
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 3: I also live off campus. I do not feel safe.

571
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 9: I watched every single video.

572
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,720
Speaker 5: That could have come out on Twitter October seventh.

573
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 9: I was like freaking out.

574
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 5: My friend finally dragged me out for a walk and

575
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 5: they're screaming like all lack bar in the parking lot

576
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 5: and they're celebrating. I've had trouble with male students, especially

577
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 5: like even non Jewish ones, that they try to comfort

578
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 5: you and they have some intentions.

579
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 9: I had a conversation and.

580
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 5: I was really upset about the rape aspect of October seventh,

581
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 5: being a woman, and he looks at me in the eyes,

582
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 5: you know, a few days after October seventh, then he goes, well,

583
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 5: I think that's the only way they know how to resist.

584
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: I would just like.

585
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 10: To add I live on campus and we've had a

586
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 10: couple of antithemtic incidents in my building. Specifically, we've had

587
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 10: people say that six million weren't enough in the common areas.

588
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 10: We've had people do the Nazi salute and the buddy

589
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 10: yeah in common areas on the first floor lobby of

590
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 10: the building. I've seen it happen where there were many

591
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 10: people there. People have reached out to the ras, which

592
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 10: are resident assistants there. They're responsible for all the residents

593
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,919
Speaker 10: in the building and there was no answer, and we

594
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 10: were a little confused on why there was no response,

595
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 10: just to find out that the next week most of

596
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 10: the r A staff actually went to a pro Polstinian

597
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 10: protest in downtown Tampa. They have started to put they

598
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 10: have started to put Palestine and flags on their doors.

599
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 10: They if you look in their offices right now, there

600
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 10: are pro Palestine and posters in there, which is not

601
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 10: the place for it. This is where there are about

602
00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 10: seven or eight Jewish people living in my whole way alone.

603
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 3: We do not feel safe. We're our a.

604
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 10: It's literally supporting the genosid of our people. We do

605
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 10: not feel safe when our r calls out into Fadda,

606
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 10: he's supposed to be the person helping us, not making

607
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 10: us feel unsafe.

608
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 8: I think it also can't go without mention that some

609
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 8: of us here have actually lost people on October seventh,

610
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 8: lost people very close to us, and that needs to

611
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 8: go without mention.

612
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 16: Yeah.

613
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 10: I actually have told my ra about the two people

614
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 10: I know that are kidnapped right now. In the beginning

615
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 10: of the war, I told him about it and he

616
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 10: said that he feels bad for me. And after hearing

617
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 10: everything from our side. He still calls it lies. I

618
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 10: have own him first hand evidence of my friends being kidnapped,

619
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:11,240
Speaker 10: and he doesn't believe it. He just didn't ignore it.

620
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 6: It's I also live off campus, and after October seventh,

621
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 6: I had one of my roommates. I don't live with

622
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 6: any Jews, but one of my roommates walked out of

623
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,240
Speaker 6: her room after being on a call with her mom saying,

624
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 6: Sammy can hide at our place if we need to,

625
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 6: like if she needs to get hidden again. Really, it's

626
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 6: we're just as scared if we were back in the

627
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 6: thirties and forties in Poland and Germany, and it was

628
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 6: a crazy thing to get told, Oh, I have the

629
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 6: place to hide. I know where I can go if

630
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 6: the time comes.

631
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 8: I'm Israelian.

632
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 5: People are begging me.

633
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 9: They're like, come back here.

634
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 5: We're fine, Like we're scared to leave the U, We're

635
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 5: scared to go to the US.

636
00:37:58,320 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll be right back.

637
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 3: Podcast When people.

638
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 4: Ask me, and I've been asked this a lot. Why

639
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 4: I have spent so much time fighting for Israel. Why

640
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 4: have I spent so much time in the last six

641
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 4: months fighting.

642
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 3: For Jewish people? It's for kids like this.

643
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 4: I ain't know, hero, I didn't expect to be in

644
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 4: this sort of position. But there is no escape from

645
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 4: the anti Semitism that these kids are dealing with at

646
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 4: the University of Southern Florida. And as fucked up as

647
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,839
Speaker 4: it is, as uncomfortable as it is, as scary as

648
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 4: it is, we must fight back. We must bully the bullies,

649
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 4: We must stand together.

650
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 3: Whether you're Jewish or not.

651
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 4: Everybody knows right from wrong, and what's happening on this

652
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 4: campus when you see people getting screened.

653
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 3: At we have to step up.

654
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 4: To shine a light on the darkness, to expose that

655
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 4: these type of things are actually happening. The University of

656
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 4: Southern Florida has a fucking problem, a serious, fucking problem.

657
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 17: Quortchek from Stand with Us had a great sentence when

658
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 17: she came to speak with us. Say that again, Charlotte Korchek,

659
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 17: who's an educator, would stand with us.

660
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,240
Speaker 2: Her statement was as followed.

661
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 17: In Israel, you have mental safety but not physical safety,

662
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 17: whereas in the US you have physical safety.

663
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,800
Speaker 2: But not mental and psychological safety.

664
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 3: Where did you say there is a like there's a

665
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 3: strip of a few minutes, not this.

666
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 8: Street like the next one.

667
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 9: Less than a mile away.

668
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a street it's full of too. Yeah, it's

669
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 5: where they have all their protests. It's full of Arab shops.

670
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,760
Speaker 5: They have a cafe called the nineteen forty eight Cafe.

671
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 3: There's an actual cafe on whatch.

672
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 5: Street, fifty sixth street. They have a Jerusalem Market. When

673
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 5: I moved here, I was like, oh, Jerusalem, and my

674
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 5: friend said, Nope, not that one.

675
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 8: And the way before October seventh, they started this no

676
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 8: Appetite for Apartheid campaign where basically any in twenty fourteen,

677
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 8: basically any product or store that has anything to do

678
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 8: with Judaism, even like sobra hummus. Yeah, they put stickers

679
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 8: on it and they classify these shops as apart tide

680
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 8: free and shops themselves they're complicit.

681
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 5: They put up a sign in their front window that

682
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 5: says they're an apartheid free store. None of these products

683
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 5: are Israeli. We don't support a genesie.

684
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 8: Can't even go off campus and escape it a yellow sticker.

685
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 13: It's a yellow sticker and it says contaminated with apartheid

686
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 13: and with a line through it.

687
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 9: And sometimes it'll have a star David. Sometimes it won't.

688
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:00,359
Speaker 2: You've seen a star.

689
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 3: I've seen it.

690
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 13: Yes, a yellow sticker with a star David with a

691
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 13: line through it. No appetite for apartheid, complicit in genocide.

692
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 13: This food is contaminated with genocidal intent.

693
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 9: Damn, I find it funny when I see it.

694
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 16: That is fucking crazy, man, That is fucking crazy.

695
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 13: At an Indian market. Yeah, four miles down the road.

696
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 12: Yeah, there's no way to escape this anti Semitism.

697
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 9: There's billboards.

698
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 12: You can go down two seventy five and there's billboards

699
00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 12: about it. You can go into shops and you will

700
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 12: see these stickers. On campus, there's a protest every single day.

701
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 9: You can't escape it. There's no way to escape it.

702
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 12: And this is just what we're dealing with that us up.

703
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 13: You cannot be safe and Jewish on campus unless you

704
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 13: are actively promoting being anti Jewish, unless you are actively

705
00:41:54,080 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 13: showing support against Judaism or intense support for Palace Stein.

706
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 13: Then you're a good Jew. Then you're a Jew that

707
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 13: they like, but you're not really Jewish. You're pro Palestinian,

708
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 13: but you're not safe as a Jew on campus. Otherwise,

709
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 13: if they see you wearing anything that is recognizable as

710
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 13: being Jewish, you're questioned, you're interrogated, and if you don't

711
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 13: give an answer that they like, you're called a Nazi,

712
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 13: you're called you know, Zionist trash or.

713
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 2: Had that happen?

714
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, several of us.

715
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 5: Somebody message me saying, you ugly Zionist girl who has

716
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 5: a victim complex. The only real victim is your parents

717
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 5: staring at your ugly Zionist face like they're crazy.

718
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 18: I mean, people try to contact my friends, my friends

719
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 18: who I have some friends that are Middle Eastern, and

720
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 18: I've had friends try to contact my friends to get

721
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,439
Speaker 18: my contact information, which my friends then declined because they're

722
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 18: not going to do that to try to get my

723
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 18: contact information so that would they could find me and

724
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 18: try to hurt me.

725
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 11: I'm I just want to say I'm as another Israeli

726
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 11: student on campus, like just something completely unrelated to Israel.

727
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 11: People will be like, why you can't talk like you're

728
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,280
Speaker 11: Israeli you don't have a say in this, Like, dude,

729
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,879
Speaker 11: just because I'm from a country doesn't mean I don't

730
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 11: get a say in something, especially when I'm proud of

731
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 11: where I'm from. I don't see why that should have

732
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 11: any bearing on me getting to have my own input

733
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 11: on things ISRAELI.

734
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be returning to the usf hellel and when

735
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 4: I do, I'm going to promote that I'm coming. That

736
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 4: wasn't the case this time because it was really an

737
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 4: impromptu poppin'. And now that I realize how these kids

738
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 4: are being treated and not deemed as safe students, faculty,

739
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 4: and community members need to be held account Doble. They

740
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 4: need to be held accountable for their conduct, and we're

741
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 4: holding them all accountable at the im Rappaport Stereo podcast,

742
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 4: each and every one of them.

743
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 16: I came here on a Saturday, you know, quickly planned,

744
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 16: sort of anonymously planned. If we had promoted that I

745
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,640
Speaker 16: was coming on campus, what would the responsibility people?

746
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 8: You can so not not only would people have said

747
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 8: things on social media, but we probably would have had

748
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:27,240
Speaker 8: people come to the building.

749
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 2: Even though we have a police presence.

750
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 3: We would think, without a doubt.

751
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,319
Speaker 8: With the flags, without a doubt, you've had to come like.

752
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 13: Four hours earlier and not have our cars here and

753
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:42,360
Speaker 13: probably you know, literally be in hiding to try to

754
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,919
Speaker 13: come here hours before you came here. So there would

755
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 13: be a semblance of safety, but there would still be

756
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 13: people here three hours before you came here.

757
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 2: We have additional police.

758
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 12: Yeah, like and we have an we have a police

759
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 12: officer twenty four seven.

760
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 9: Yeah, we are the only organization. We are the only

761
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,320
Speaker 9: organization that needs.

762
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 6: To have uh least presence outside years since they're like.

763
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,360
Speaker 8: You drive past it three in the morning, they're out here.

764
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 16: Are any of you guys thinking about not coming back

765
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 16: to the school?

766
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 9: Yes, without a doubt, without.

767
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have.

768
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,760
Speaker 5: Liz and I have pulled our grad applications. They even said,

769
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 5: you know why, And I said, this is like we

770
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,959
Speaker 5: have a senior survey, an outtake survey. And I said,

771
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 5: this is one of the worst experiences I could have

772
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,680
Speaker 5: had at a university. I never would have imagined that

773
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 5: my my biggest problem would be my race or my

774
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 5: religion at a university where I'm studying health sciences.

775
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 9: Didn't think that was my biggest problem. Yeah, so you

776
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 9: just you don't get a break from it.

777
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 14: You know, you're we're in a unique spot where like

778
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 14: my grandma's a Holocaust survivor, and she said to me

779
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 14: that this was worse than what she experienced. And then

780
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 14: my parents grew up in like the golden age of

781
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,720
Speaker 14: America where they had no problems with anti Semitism, And

782
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 14: so when you know, I talk about it with them.

783
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 9: They're like, well, just keep your head down. You're telling

784
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 9: me to keep your head.

785
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,800
Speaker 14: Down, And I'm looking at graffiti on my university campus

786
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,439
Speaker 14: saying was twenty five thousand dead Gosen's not enough for you.

787
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 9: They won't even they don't even call them the IDF.

788
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 14: They say IOF that Israeli occupational forces.

789
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 9: They won't.

790
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 14: Right, So you can't look up because there's a protest

791
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 14: in your face, and you can't look down because there's

792
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,200
Speaker 14: graffiti all over your sidewalks.

793
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 9: What are you supposed to look? What are you supposed

794
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 9: to do?

795
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 8: The hypervigilance on campus as a Jewish student is unreal.

796
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 8: Like there are times that I'm walking and I like

797
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,760
Speaker 8: have nine to one one ready just to like press

798
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 8: the the dial button. And as someone who lives on campus,

799
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 8: I took the name placard off my door.

800
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 9: The day of October.

801
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,000
Speaker 8: Seventh because I don't need people knowing where I live.

802
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 8: And as a Jewish student leader, that was a huge

803
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,800
Speaker 8: concern for me. And I can't even like go back

804
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 8: to my apartment and escape it because there are people

805
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 8: in the building and in surrounding buildings that participate in

806
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 8: these protests and are part of these twent organizations and

807
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,080
Speaker 8: hold leadership positions and are friendly with the RAS. And

808
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 8: when last semester, when two of my roommates graduated, we

809
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 8: had two random girls moving in the amount of anxiety

810
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 8: I had knowing that two strangers were moving in and

811
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 8: if they saw my door open for one second and

812
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 8: saw the Israel flag I had on the wall or

813
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 8: the mezizza on my.

814
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,839
Speaker 9: Door, I was absolutely petrified.

815
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 8: And next year I'm moving off campus and will be

816
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,080
Speaker 8: off campus as much as possible.

817
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:37,280
Speaker 9: If I'm not in class, I'm.

818
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,760
Speaker 8: Going to be at Hillel or my apartment because nowhere

819
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 8: else on campus is safe.

820
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 9: You're just visually bombarded.

821
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 13: You're visually bombarded, and you're auditorially.

822
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 9: Bombarded, the complete sensory overlaying.

823
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 16: Yes, yeah, this anti Jewishness, anti Semitism, antisionists has been

824
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 16: going on before October seventh.

825
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 19: And the early two thousands. I believe it was a

826
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,919
Speaker 19: professor here by the name of Sammy al Arian who

827
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 19: was deported for being a member of Hamas.

828
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, he was a teacher.

829
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:21,399
Speaker 19: Yes, Palestinian Islamic g had sorry, big difference, but yeah, yeah,

830
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,560
Speaker 19: he was a professor, a tenured professor, I believe.

831
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:29,759
Speaker 7: So in the mid the late eighties, a cell established

832
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:34,879
Speaker 7: base here on the campus. There were four employees who

833
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 7: were affiliated with Palisinian Islamic JI had one of whom

834
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 7: I believe ninety five just up and disappeared overnight, showed

835
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 7: up in Syria or Lebanon and became the head of PALISIN,

836
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 7: the global head of Palesestinian Islamic g Hod until twenty eighteen.

837
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 3: About And this was a professor here.

838
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 2: This was an instructor here who.

839
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 7: There were about seven people indicted by the United States government.

840
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 7: There was an individual. Many of them had already left

841
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 7: the country, so the government couldn't, you know, follow through

842
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 7: the case and imprison them. But one of them, doctor

843
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 7: l Arian, was charged, he was held accountable, he was deported.

844
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 7: Then there was another individual who is still local, who

845
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 7: was charged to face jail time and then faced additional

846
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 7: jail time for additional charges.

847
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 2: He came back to the area.

848
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 7: He's now a leader in their community, and we know

849
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,120
Speaker 7: he's had some affiliation with student groups on this campus

850
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 7: in recent months.

851
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 16: If I was going to say, what's I know, it's

852
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 16: a kind of a hard question. What's the what would

853
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 16: be the one thing that you would like to see

854
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 16: for these students and for this campus to deal with

855
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 16: what's historically going on here, what's historically gone on here

856
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 16: and what's happening right now?

857
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 2: What would you say?

858
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,240
Speaker 7: We have to start with an acknowledgment that it's happening.

859
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 7: They won't acknowledge it's happening. Interesting because we have police

860
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 7: again only environment on campus that requires this, and we're

861
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,399
Speaker 7: grateful for the resource, but they are on one hand

862
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 7: saying there are no problems, and then on the other hand,

863
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 7: we have a massive resource twenty four to seven here

864
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 7: and that started when that started within hours of the

865
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:18,160
Speaker 7: bomb threat?

866
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 14: What was it?

867
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:19,719
Speaker 2: What was the date?

868
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 3: Do you remember?

869
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 7: Ober eleventh? And we're immensely grateful for it, and the

870
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 7: officers are wonderful and they're good to our students, but

871
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 7: nothing is going to change until the leaders acknowledge that

872
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 7: we have a that they have a problem, that there

873
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 7: is a sickness and a rot on this campus.

874
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 19: And they need to also enforce the code of conduct

875
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 19: and students who talk about intafadas or violence or threats

876
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 19: things like that they need to be expelled. They need

877
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 19: to expel people for violating the code of conduct, and

878
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 19: until that happens, this is going to be status quo.

879
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 6: Damn after October seventh. I know I speak for almost

880
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 6: everybody in this room.

881
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 9: Hill has been the core supporter it has.

882
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 6: Coming to this building is like a breath of relief

883
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 6: that you can let out all of your stress. You

884
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 6: can talk to all of these people because we all

885
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 6: are going through the same thing and we all understand,

886
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 6: and it has been the most helpful thing to come

887
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 6: out of October seventh is the community that we have built,

888
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 6: and so it's incredible to see us all come together

889
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:37,840
Speaker 6: and be there for one another.

890
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:39,360
Speaker 9: It's just the best.

891
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 4: I'm proud of these students for holding their ground. I'm

892
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:47,400

894
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 4: I can't be so innocent and so go surprised, this

895
00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:02,879
Speaker 4: is a reality. We're six months to this shit, six

896

Speaker 4: dealing with this six months later. I never would imagine

898
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 4: I'd be visiting University of Southern Florida, A college campus

899
