Content: From Executive Producer Macklemore, The Encampments offers an urgent, intimate portrait of America’s student movement, ignited at Columbia University as students protested their universities’ ties to the war on Gaza. Their actions sparked a nationwide uprising, with encampments spreading across hundreds of campuses. Featuring detained activist Mahmoud Khalil, alongside professors, whistleblowers, and organizers, the film captures the deeper stakes of a historic moment that continues to reverberate across the globe. Followed by a panel discussion moderated by Rabbi Brant Rosen, featuring two local students who have been active in the campus encampment movement. *Free Admission – In-Person Only – Light snacks will be served*
