He's not on the faculty staff.
What is he doing here?
And it's also as well, you know what I find really fascinating from a psychological perspective is the use of chants, in that you go to these protests, you watch, and it's all about chanting.
And what's so powerful is the chants rhyme, and it almost becomes musical, and the crowd just gets whipped up in the fervor of the chants.
But you look at what the chants actually mean, and most of the times they're utterly nonsensical.
There was one which was, we won't be free until Palestine is free.
And you go, what does that actually mean?
What does that actually, are you not free?
I think this is a, I mean, not in the UK, but I mean, here in the US, you're pretty free.
