Election wins prove pro-Palestine US campus protests didn’t fail: Activists
"In New York, Darializa Avila Chevalier, an activist who participated in the pro-Palestine protests at Columbia University, won a Democratic congressional primary against a five-term incumbent.
Avila Chevalier’s win was one of several victories for pro-Palestine candidates in New York last week.
Last year, Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, in part thanks to the efforts of young pro-Palestine activists who powered his campaign.
In Colorado on Tuesday, Melat Kiros, who was fired from her law firm in 2023 for a letter defending Palestinian rights supporters from accusations of anti-Semitism, ousted a House member who had been in Congress for nearly 30 years.
Candidates backed by supporters of Palestinian rights also won key races in Pennsylvania and New Jersey."
