Mohsen Mahdawi, a green-card holder and Columbia University student, was detained by the Trump administration due to his pro-Palestinian activism. Following his arrest in Vermont during a naturalization interview, he faces deportation with claims that his presence threatens the Middle East peace process. A federal judge has granted him a hearing for bail, emphasizing the need to keep him in Vermont rather than shipping him elsewhere. Mahdawi maintains hope for justice, urging others to stay positive amid political suppression.
I will see you under the sun. When Mahdawi was first arrested, he was taken by the Ice agents to a car that immediately set out on a clear plan to ship him to Louisiana.
If he's moved to another state, it creates a second tier of issues. He's a Vermont resident, he was arrested in Vermont.
