Jake Crim knew this injury was different from the moment it happened during a routine game with his team, Stumptown AC, in 2021. In an innocent backpedal run, it was barely noticeable to the untrained eye that Crim had tripped over his own feet. He hit the ground almost immediately, curled in a ball and grasping at his ankle.

The Eagle reported on protests by American University Alums for Palestine that took place on Nov. 15. AU Alums of Palestine protested against the AU Meltzer Schwartzberg Center for Israel Studies conference “Israel at 100: Scenarios for the Future of Israel in 2048” outside Constitution Hall. It seems that none of the protesters and none of the Eagle reporters actually went inside to hear the discussions. They may have noted that the conference was not meant to be and was not a celebration of Israel — but rather a critical evaluation of possible future scenarios by a diversity of invited speakers, among them Palestinians. This conference was neither a glorification of the war nor a legitimation of Israeli politics. In fact, many of the views represented were very clear in their criticism of the Israeli government and expressed deep concern about its future path.
