The November 29 arrest of Pomona College professor Arón Macal Montenegro at an on campus “die-in” protest triggered a wave of concern from colleagues, activists, and administration, ultimately leading to the withdrawal of charges. Montenegro, a lecturer in Chicana/o and Latina/o studies, was arrested while “demonstrating in solidarity with Palestinians in front of Smiley Hall, playing music from a speaker.” Photo/courtesy of Samson Zhang
