Khymani James expressed unwavering support for his controversial statement, claiming, "I will not allow anyone to shame me for my politics," indicating his firm position on the matter.
During a disciplinary hearing, James emphasized the gravity of his remarks, stating, "Be grateful that I'm not just going out and murdering Zionists," reflecting both his anger and the extremity of his thoughts.
Columbia University Apartheid Divest walked back their apology, clarifying, "The statement appeared to be on behalf of James, he had no involvement in it," highlighting a disconnect between him and the group's previous response.
The group admitted to their impact on James's experience, stating, "We caused irrevocable harm to you by contributing to the ostracization... the media, and the public," illuminating the backlash he faced.
