Protesters gathered in Manhattan on Monday ahead of President Joe Biden’s interview on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers, accusing the president of enabling genocide against Palestinians.
Jewish Voice For Peace NYC said on X that hundreds of Jewish New Yorkers and their allies occupied the main lobby at 30 Rockefeller Center and that 50 protesters were arrested as Biden was arriving for his appearance on the late-night talk show with Meyers.
Videos posted on social media show demonstrators holding signs that read “The world is watching” and “Jews to Biden: Stop arming genocide.”
Protesters from the Jewish-led pro-Palestinian group chanted, “Biden, you can’t hide; you are funding genocide,” a shout that has been echoed at other protests.
Biden is taping for Late Night with Seth Meyers now.
