University of Michigan commencement interrupted by Pro-Palestine protesters [Video]

Pro-Palestine protesters made their voices heard during the University of Michigan’s commencement Saturday.  They spoke out against the Israel-Hamas war, colliding with the annual pomp-and-circumstance of graduation ceremonies.

No arrests were reported and the protest — comprised of about 50 people, many wearing traditional Arabic kaffiyeh along with their graduation caps — didn’t seriously interrupt the nearly two-hour event at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, which was attended by tens of thousands of people.

One protest banner read: “No universities left in Gaza.”

U.S. Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro paused a few times during his remarks, saying at one point, “Ladies and gentlemen, if you can please draw your attention back to the podium.”
