A new documentary follows Mahmoud Khalil and other student activists as they fight for divestment and Palestinian liberation. We learn in the documentary that Khalil was a Palestinian scholar at Columbia University, known for his diplomatic character and handpicked by his fellow students to negotiate with the university administration on their behalf. They claim that Khalil is a supporter of terrorism who slipped through the cracks rather than a brave and selfless Palestinian student committed to the liberation of his people. Viewers follow Columbia students as they embark on months of activism to demand investment transparency from the university administration, as well as divestment from weapons manufacturers and other companies complicit in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. It’s un-deportable.”For anyone still awaiting an invitation to join the Palestinian liberation movement, The Encampments offers a compelling one.
