A Queens high school where teachers say some students chanted “Death to Israel!” is being slammed for hosting a “one-sided indoctrination” lecture series about the Middle East war, outraged critics charge.
The lecture series kicked off on Nov. 17 at the High School for Community Leadership in Jamaica Hills with a talk from Tova Fry, an anti-Zionist member of the far-left group Jewish Voice for Peace.
Another talk by Fatin Jarara, an Arab disc jockey, focused on the “Palestinian story of forced displacement, exile and resistance.”
A lecture by The Rev. Nyle Fort titled “Black Solidarity with Palestine” took place on Feb. 12 in the Jamaica Campus Library, which the high school shares with two other high schools and a middle school.
