The University of Chicago's Institute of Politics was surrounded by a group pro-Palestinian protesters. CPD and UChicago police were also there.The University of Chicago's Institute of Politics building was surrounded by pro-Palestinian protesters Friday afternoon.
Some of the protesters appeared to have gotten into the building, but it wasn't immediately clear how. Two young women briefly stood on the porch awning and held up a Palestine flag, before duct taping it in place. Video from Chopper 7 shows that at one point a makeshift barricade of chairs was set up at the back of the building, with a line of students standing there with arms interlocked. A tent has also been set up on the grounds.
