On January, 25, 2024, New York University announced it had suspended and was investigating adjunct professor Amin Husain for comments he made at a December 7, 2023 teach-in at The New School. At the teach-in, Husain denied reports about Hamas’s alleged war crimes in Israel on October 7 by saying that “we know it isn’t true,” and also described New York City as a “Zionist City.” FIREwrote NYU on Feb. 2 urging the school to reinstate Husain and refrain from punishing faculty for political commentary protected by the university’s free speech policies.
