1,000+ Jewish Activists and Allies Rally for Mahmoud Khalil
-----------------------------------------------------------

On Thursday, organizers say more than a thousand Jewish activists from
groups including If Not Now and Jews for Racial and Economic Justice
rallied in front of the Manhattan headquarters of ICE to demand the
release of Columbia student activist Mahmoud Khalil, who was picked up
by federal immigration agents on March 8 and remains in a Louisiana
detention center. We'll have the latest on Mahmoud Khalil's case later
in the broadcast.
