Encamping Harvard students denouncing Israeli war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank.—photo Tanbou, March 2024.

We are pleased to share with our readers this great open letter by Aaron D.A. Shakow, a lecturer at Harvard Medical School, to Rabbi Jason Rubenstein, Executive Director of Harvard Hillel.
