On February 8, 2010 students organized an act of protest in opposition to a speech delivered by Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren at the UC Irvine campus. The students were disciplined by the university and recently Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas filed charges against these students. Join us for a discussion about the implications of the case for the students directly involved and student protesters more generally during the current trend of filing criminal charges against protesters and dissidents.
