Freedom, At Last

Leqaa Kordia, a 33-year-old from the West Bank, is finally out of a U.S. immigration detention center in Texas after being held since last March. It’s about time – Kordia had been stuck in limbo for over a year.

A Long and Ridiculous Ordeal

Kordia, who’s lived in New Jersey since 2016, was the last protester still in detention after Trump’s infamous campus crackdown. The fact that it took this long to release him is, frankly, ridiculous. Don’t expect an apology from the powers that be, though – that’s just not how it works.
