Footage of the incident was captured by The Post Millennial’s news editor Thomas Stevenson.
Children chanted statements such as “Ceasefire now,” “Save the kids in Gaza,” and “Books not bombs.”

In November, pro-Palestine demonstrators occupied the office of Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY).
The protesters sat on the floor, chanting, “Genocide Gillibrand has got to go.”
Protesters also occupied Senator Bernie Sanders’s (I-VT) office on November 3, demanding a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel.
