One of the radical activists leading the protests at Columbia University, Khymani James, has been exposed by Andy Ngo for making a livestream recording where he says that “zionists, along with all white supremacists,” all need to be killed.
James, who is all for “decolonization, liberation, and justice” has denounced Ngo as a “far right agitator” after Ngo exposed the inflammatory video. Then James tried to downplay his original call for violence by saying he had been “feeling unusually upset after an online mob” allegedly targeted him for being “visibly queer and Black.”
James’ apology note claims that this isn’t the first time that he’s been “targeted by online trolls” who aimed to intimidate him. He further explains that “Zionism is an ideology that necessitates the genocide of the Palestinian people” and says that “Palestinians have been subjected to decades of brutal violence and now genocide by Israel.”
