New York City Mayor Eric Adams booed during CUNY Law commencement
CUNY Law grads booed when Adams said he protected the city in the NYPD

By Andrea Vacchiano | Fox News

    Mayor Eric Adams was booed at a City University of New York (CUNY) School of Law graduation ceremony Friday, after referencing his history as a police officer.

As Adams delivered a short speech to the crowd, dozens of students began shouting when he mentioned his previous service in the New York Police Department (NYPD).

The mayor had been an officer for 22 years, graduating from the New York City Police Academy in 1984.

Video on Twitter shows dozens of law graduates standing up and putting their backs towards Adams in protest of his speech.

NYC’s public law school releases video of ‘antisemitic’ commencement speech

NEW YORK — New York City’s public law school on Thursday released a video of a commencement ceremony held earlier this month, including a speech the city college system’s Jewish allies decried as discriminatory.

The speaker accused Israel of “indiscriminate” murder, encouraging “lynch mobs” and lauded resistance to “Zionism around the world.”

The City University of New York (CUNY) Law School had hidden the video after coming under criticism for the ceremony.

The speech marked the second consecutive year that the law school’s commencement speaker dedicated much of their address to anti-Israel rhetoric, and comes amid a years-long running battle over alleged widespread antisemitism in the city college system.  ...

The law school’s commencement ceremony on May 12 featured anti-Israel activist Fatima Mohammed as its keynote speaker. The school’s commencement speaker is elected by the student body.  ...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

More on Fatima Mohammed's rant at the law school graduation:

James J. Marlow
@James_J_Marlow
She is from Yemen, a country in a civil war, almost non stop for a 100 years with tens of 1000s dead, but ONLY demonises Israel and its people. AND she said the New York police were fascist and calls for a “revolution”.
Toward end, she said “by any means”.
Wake up America.

In a rational world, this law school's accreditation would be at risk, to say the least, as well as its funding.

CUNY Law commencement speaker claims laws are 'White supremacy,' attacks 'fascist' police and military
[T]he law is a manifestation of White supremacy that continues to oppress and suppress people in this nation and around the world,' CUNY Law graduate said
By Hannah Grossman | Fox News

The City University of New York's (CUNY) public law school's commencement featured a speech from a graduating student calling for a "revolution" to challenge "oppressive" institutions in America. The speaker mentioned institutions of law and order such as the military, the police, Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the U.S. prison system.

"I come to you all from the rich soil of Yemen, raised by the humble streets of Queens," said future lawyer Fatima Mousa Mohammed, who was selected by the 2023 class to speak at the May 12 CUNY Law ceremony. At first, the law school took down the speech on YouTube– but then released it following public outcry as critics derided them for silencing a pro-Palestinian voice.

"I chose CUNY School of Law for its articulated mission [as one of the] few legal institutions… to recognize that the law is a manifestation of White supremacy that continues to oppress and suppress people in this nation and around the world."



"No one person will save the world. No single movement will liberate the masses. Those who brought the ferocity of the violence, those who carry the revolution, the people, the masses, those who brought the ferocity of the violence, those who need our protection. They will carry this revolution."

She added that a revolution was ongoing, but was not widely known.

"The revolution that lives so loudly despite not being televised. No longer are we going to capitulate to oppressors. No longer are we going to put our hope in their depraved consciousness."
