Excited to share that my @USC campus reporting on the Israel-Hamas war won #1 place from the Society of Professional Journalists

EXCLUSIVE: UC Santa Barbara student body president Tessa Veksler speaks out in her first interview after being targeted with antisemitic messages on campus “I need my community and also Jewish communities on other college campuses to see that you cannot allow yourself to be pushed out.”

This is so insane. The person is saying they took the hostage signs down because it’s making the conflict worse and that the hostages didn’t authorize their images to be used?!
