"Jewish Teacher's Terrifying Hideaway in Queens High School Amidst Radicalized Students"
A Jewish teacher at Hillcrest High School in Queens was forced to hide in her classroom as students rampaged through the hallways, demanding her firing for attending a pro-Israel rally. The students, waving Palestine flags, rioted for two hours after images of the teacher at the rally surfaced. Administrators and NYPD officers rushed to her aid, locking her room door. The teacher, who had been an educator for 23 years, expressed her shock at the calls for violence against her and called for respectful discussions on challenging topics. The incident highlights the growing anti-Semitism in the city following recent events in Israel.
