Leqaa Kordia is a 32-year old Palestinian woman from the West Bank who was kidnapped by ICE in March 2025 for participating in a protest at Columbia University. She is still detained at the Prairieland Detention Facility in TX, where 16 anti-ICE protestors are also being held 🧵 Image On June 4, 2025, Leqaa wrote a statement in Arabic from her prison cell, which her loved ones translated into English. As we have not seen many groups uplift it, we'd like to do that here, as well as encourage people to donate to her legal funds.

We’re tired of this. Genocide isn’t a spectator sport. Along with AHA, MLA, AWP, and PEN, we’ve set up a tab on our bookstore site where you can redirect your PSL travel fees to Palestinian families instead: …n-books-a-poem-emporium.myshopify.com/products/w4g-l… x.com/emcohen_/statu… PSL/Answer Coalition are a large reason why the left is currently unable to meet this moment.
