“Kehlani is not just an artist with controversial points of view: it is one that has publicly glorified violence against Jews and has constantly promoted a dangerous and anti -Semitic rhetoric that directly to our community, he said.

“Black students are expected to welcome a KKK rock band on the campus. Asian students rush,” Hate Asian … Suppose it. “So why are Jewish students treated as the exception?”
Rez said that Cornell and any other university that allow intolerance, harassment and violent extremism must be “totally disbursed”, investigated foreign funds and have their endowments, real estate and income taxes.
Cornell defended the invitation, saying that Kehlani is acting at the request of a group led by students on the “Slope Day”, an end of the year celebration for students.
