Violent protests over the Israel-Hamas war have reached boiling point across university campuses in the United States.

Pro-Palestinian protesters are demanding their universities cut ties with Israel or any companies that support its ongoing war in Gaza.

Plus, Lauren Lassabe Shepherd, a historian at the University of New Orleans and author of Resistance From The Right: Conservatives And The Campus Wars, looks at how these protests compare to others the US has seen and analyses if the action could lead to change.
