In the US, police have again moved on campuses from coast to coast: over a thousand people have been arrested from more than 25 colleges.

Rabbi Sharon Brous is the founder of IKAR, an influential progressive Jewish congregation in Los Angeles. Last week, she visited both Columbia and UCLA to visit the protests, and she speaks to Christiane from L.A. to share her experience.
