I cannot recommend The People’s Forum enough. They are an organizing space in New York City and regularly hold really fantastic classes and lectures (most of their content is in the Live tab).
From Ju-Hyun Park, a Nodutdol organizer:
“While far from an anti-imperialist or a socialist, Lee Jae-myung really has no equal among western liberal politicians in his willingness to somewhat stand up to the current govt and even take personal risks like hunger strike. If he goes, the Yoon govt will only be stronger imo”

Have you read Lenin’s Left-Wing Comminism? He makes a pretty good argument for why communists should run in bourgeois elections.
did a news source cover it?
Yes...BreakThrough News covered it. What are you expecting, the New York Times?
Here you go, a reporter with a different view.
The Columbia School of Public Affairs Palestine working group also posted it along with SJP Columbia.
This did happen today though, Columbia student groups posted about it. Maybe you have it confused with a prior disruption. They have targeted Hillary Clinton repeatedly
Both are extremely important. Widespread transformation of public consciousness doesn’t happen without massive marches in public.
“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
Ok let’s be serious here, do you think Uhuru’s protest should take precedence over what is going on in Palestine right now? There is an active genocide going on and we are talking about the dehumanization of millions of people here. The Palestine march isn’t exactly something that can afford to be moved a week later to accommodate another group.

Little late but yeah PSL isn’t a Trot party. I think the misconception is due to them splitting from Workers World Party which started out as Trotskyist.
If PSL organized the event then you have many comrades nearby!
France has banned pro Palestine rallies and is using tear gas and water cannons on protestors

I'm tearing up watching footage of pro-Palestine demonstrations. Our strength is growing every single day. Salute to all comrades who protested today!
Love Gabriel Rockhill! He just did a podcast about Western Marxism with Momodou Taal (the student that Cornell tried to deport for disrupting a weapons company career fair) that is incredible https://open.spotify.com/episode/4pz62hjiW2VgWp6OJxN8Am
