Lisa Fithian, an experienced activist known as “Professor Occupy” for her involvement in training radicals during the 2011 Occupy Wall Street protests, was reportedly observed at the recent pro-Palestinian demonstration at Columbia University. The New York City Police Department released a video showing Fithian instructing a group of anti-Israel protesters as they occupied Hamilton Hall at the university. Fithian has a history of organizing and training activists, including during the Occupy Wall Street protests and demonstrations for open borders in Washington, DC. Her involvement has raised questions about the leadership and funding driving the current wave of pro-Palestinian actions at universities across the country.
