(Free Beacon) A Harvard Divinity School graduate selected by faculty members to speak at the school’s commencement ceremony used her address to praise Elom Tettey-Tamaklo, a classmate who faced criminal charges for assaulting an Israeli classmate.
“Class of 2025, Palestine is waiting for us to arrive,” the speaker, Zehra Imam, told the crowd Thursday while draped in a keffiyeh and holding a Palestinian flag. “Elom Tettey-Tamaklo … our friends [sic] and classmate who continues to show up not just for Palestine, but for each of us by extending to us the water we need in our most vulnerable moments. Together we must refuse to be ruled by the tyrants of our time because our liberations are intertwined.”
