A billionaire University of Pennsylvania Board of Trustees member has called for the resignation of his alma mater’s leaders and for donors to withhold funds in response to the school’s failure to quell antisemitism in the wake of Hamas’s attacks on Israel.
The polarizing Palestine Writes gathering featured well-known anti-Semites and fomenters of hate and racism, and it was underwritten, supported and hosted by various UPenn academic departments and affiliates. At a gathering supposedly focused on Palestinian arts, culture and poetry, the presenters focused on Jews, Israel and Zionism.
He also complained that university officials were trying to silence criticism, even going so far as to pressure trustees into leaving the board.In response to the public backlash from one of their own members, the university responded by saying they will battle anti-Jewish sentiment on campus.
