Controversial Commencement Speech at CUNY Law School Draws Criticism.
A graduating student at CUNY Law's commencement speech called for a revolution to challenge oppressive institutions in America, including the military, police, ICE, and the U.S. prison system. The student claimed that the law is a manifestation of White supremacy that continues to oppress and suppress people in the nation and around the world. She also called for the dismantling of capitalism, racism, imperialism, and Zionism around the world. The speech was initially taken down but later released following public outcry.
