The Wexner Center for the Arts, funded by philanthropist Les Wexner, will continue its ongoing exhibit featuring the works of Palestinian artist Jumana Manna, despite controversy over her social media posts celebrating Hamas's invasion of Israel.

Some Jewish artists are calling for the exhibition to be canceled, while Manna claims her posts were taken out of context and not intended to celebrate the murder of Jews. The decision comes as Wexner's foundation penalizes Harvard University for not being more pro-Israel.
