Is College Commencement season and some Campus Protesters are turning their focus this from occupying the quad to disrupting the pomp and circumstance last night, protesters interrupted a Commencement Ceremony at the university of Michigan Police arrived suit after the tactics of the protests, there, polarizing but one statement of solidarity with the propalestinian Student Movement caught my eye this week. Its the College Decrats of america this an official branch of the Democratic Party and its led by students. Uh, you know, to win reelection, President Biden needs young voters. So when the infrastructure that exists to get him those votes publicly criticizes the president. Its more than just a statement of support the group also added this College Democrats votes are not to be taken for granted by the Democratic Party. We reserve the right to criticize our party when it fails to listen to us with me now, two liters of the College Democrats who voted on this solidary solidarity statement. There Executive Board passed it with a vote of eight to do the burden, voted in favor of it Joshua Martin voted against it. Good to have both of you with me and joshua. Let me start here with you. You dont think to the College Democrats should endorse the protests happening across the country. Why well, i think the answer is simple. I look across country at the different protests going on and i reject the notion that we cant be pro protests without saying that occupying buildings, holding janitors hostage in closets and blocking jewish students from going to class is not okay i think that we need to come together to make sure that your students are feeling safe on our campus. So thats why i am firmly against it. The reason its remarkable that the cva which is an official part of the Democratic National committee, says that the president is wrong here and the job is to try to get democrats especially the president , reelected. Why did you think it was important though, to sign on to this statement and offer this support to these protests. Yes. I want to start off by saying, as you mentioned, cd cda has a commitment to getting biden reelected, but we also have a commitment to being a clear and strong voice for our peers. The students within the party december 13, we released a Statement Calling for the release of hostages. The facilitation of a lasting ceasefire, as well as denounced the rising antisemitism and islamophobia. Thats happening on campuses and cda has remained firm in our belief that all life is precious and that any violence that has, that has taken the lives of palestinian, israeli, or american lives is wrong. And we stand on that statement. Are you reading from the paper . Are you reading from a statement right now, if you all right, lets just turn that over and just talk to me i must be honest. I am very nervous. Its okay. Its okay. Its fine. You can just flip it over. Im not asking any trick questions. I do just want an honest answer from your heart about what you feel about these protests. So lets just talk without but without the talking points. Let me play this for you. This is President Biden this week in reaction to a question about the protests forced you to reconsider the policies or to the region . No joshua, whats your reaction to that . That whats happening on these campuses is not changing his mind because firmly, i agree with the president. I think about whenever i think about that, i look at the Harvard Youth poll that recently came out about the top 16 issues that are facing young people. And they, israeli, Palestinian Conflict is number 15 on that list. Why . Because young people care about the economy for ability, being able to buy a home after they graduate college, they care about their Abortion Rights that have been taken away from them. Plenty of different states they care about the environment, making sure that we have a clean work so that they can raise their children, grandchildren on a planet thats more clean than one. They, they grew up on so i think whenever you look at the issues, President Biden and Vice President harris, ive done a great job on those issues, which is why ultimately young voters are going to give them another four years and send them back to the white house. Let me read two sentences from the College Democrats of america statement supporting these protests the white house has taken the mistaken route of a Bear Hug Strategy for netanyahu and a Cold Shoulder strategy for its own base. And all americans who want to see an end to this war. Each day that democrats failed to stand united for a permanent ceasefire, twostate solution. And recognition of a palestinian state more and more youth find themselves disillusioned with the party data. What do you say to young people who say you are exactly right i agree with everything there. And thats why im not going to vote for him in november i want to take it back for a second to adjust your first point as to why i voted yes. For the statement to this day, i believe Something Like 20 students have been arrested nationally hi jobs had been ripped from The Heads Of Muzzles students, graduations are being canceled, students arent being allowed to walk the stage. Theyre being interrupted. There. Theres so much happening with our country. And cda as we mentioned, with College Students being in the name of our organization, our our students, our foundation, our peers, arent being heard. Theyre not being respected. There their, their demands, theyre not theyre not being addressed in our statement, we stated in honore twitter, your on her social media, we stated that we stand with peaceful protests and im happy to have josh here. We were part of this ybor together. We ran on the same slate. We started our positions at the same time and we worked on numerous issues here but to the point to say, for the chastising of a portion of the democratic, i mean, of course, its College Students across the country can speak out and you can speak out in an organization but to chastise the president in that way for the people who agree with everything youve said, there what then does that mean . What incentive do you give them to vote for him . What if they say youre right cda. And im not going to vote for him. What do you tell to tell those students to encourage them to vote for him anyway . I dont believe in our statement, were saying dont vote for joe biden. Thats not our narrative is at all. We have a commitment to getting joe biden reelected. However, we reserve the right to make room for our peers, to make room for ourselves as the organization has, as any organizations have before being college, number kinds of american meaning means we are the voice of College Students. And right now, College Students across the country want to be heard, right now, College Students across the country are making some, some campuses even simple demands like just flying the palestinian flag, just respecting both, both groups of people, just loving one another and having piece that is all were standing for, that, that is all we want. All right. The other burden, Joshua Martin. Thank you both for the conversation four years ago this month, george floyd was murdered by a Police Officer who knelt on his neck and kept kneeling even after floyd said several times that he could not breathe next week, a family and ohio will bury a man who died after he told and officer who had a knee on his back for about 30 seconds that he could not breathe his name was frank tyson. He was 53 years old. He crashed his car into a pole and then went to a meeting hall nearby. It canton Police Officers found and good well, after the office is forced into the floor and handcuffed him, tyson said within a minute, including after the office knee was off his back. Listen now to one officers response storage right there. Ill be glad again youre fine. Yeah. Five minutes after tyson stopped speaking, the office is noticed he was unresponsive and they started cpr Canada Police say two officers involved drawn administrative leave pending an investigation by the Ohio Attorney generals bureau of Criminal Investigation joining me now, is civil rights attorney benjamin crump. P is one of the lawyers representing the family. And frank tysons fiance, Sabrina Jones sabrina, first my condolences two you and i thank you for being with me. When you watch that video, what do you see . What do you feel i was hurt devastated any agree . Matt i couldnt believe what i was seeing it was wrong then i can get their video On My Mind Attorney Crump another man dying under the knee of a Police Officer saying, i cant breathe, i cant breathe and then we heard the response from one of the officers. Youre fine. Shut the f up. What do you see when you watch that video whereas the family has said previously, ginger its like george floor to 0. 0 i cant believe were reliving jaws for four years later in america, if ever, Police Officers should have learned from the teachable moment, from george floor that you should never put your knee on a persons neck especially when there are restrained and sand i cant breed. And then for him to respond, shut the f up. It is inferior aiding. We have to do better by black people who say, i cant breathe eric gardener george floyd and now frank tyson. How many more black people have to die before the Police Believe us when we say, i cant breed attorney crop on this longer video, when we see the katyn police walk into this and vets center, this meeting hall, the first thing he says is called the sheriff sheriff call the sheriff. You all not going to kill me in here tonight. Why does he say call the share thats very important that america understands brent tyson was wrongfully convicted for 24 years. He actually had petitions. We have the federal court that had witnesses recant their statements. Saying the prosecutors made us lie. He had Video Evidence where it contradicted what the police said who was the only person that identified him. All his life . He had been frightened. The canton per Police Department to say, im innocent. So when he got into this accident and say it called a sheriff, dont call it a camp Police Department because he was mortified by the camp Police Department. I will stay stole his liberty. He had only been out of prison big the black well, four, 13 days and then they stole his life and i dont know whats worse, the Wrongful Conviction or the wrong foot depth now, i have to say that cnn, as a news organization, we dont have any record of an exoneration, as you say, this was a petition that was in the process. Sabrina, let me come to you. What do you want to happen now . This for frank, i want to see those Police Officers in jail. I dont leave because i dont want them to have another job let them be taken away, and their families just like the pick frankly, i know they wont be dead, but just has to be done Attorney Crop Body Cameras were supposed to prevent things like this from happening and the changes even after 2020, canton police, they change their use of force policy carotid control holds, chokeholds, or any other action that restricts blood or oxygen flow through the neck are prohibited unless deadly force is authorized, that was supposed to be a deterrent the accountability and charges against other offers, were supposed to be a deterrent. But still this happens. What is the effective deterrent or is this just going to keep happening as my cocounsel, attorney barbie, the cello say, when he ripped camp Police Department policies up at our Press Conference theyre just pretty words on paper. They mean nothing. If were not going to enforce them. And thats why we need the United States congress to finally pass the george floyd just as important piece frank tysons blur is all of our hands. Who failed to add after george floyd next month would be for year how long america, how long, how many more marginalized people have at the hands of Police Brutality before we have systematic Police Reform in the United States of America Sabrina i dont want his story just to be his death. So just take a couple of seconds and tell us about the man frank tyson for you guys to the west london for me.
