The new documentary "The Encampments" is an important 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. It features detained activist Mahmoud Khalil, alongside professors, whistleblowers, and organizers.
In our latest episode, we talk with Michael Workman and Kei Pritsker, the co-directors of "The Encampments."
