Nick Riemer, a University of Sydney academic, has been involved in pro-Palestinian activism and faced accusations of antisemitism. Recently, it was revealed that the university has no evidence of antisemitic incidents on campus, vindicating protesters and challenging claims that the university is an "antisemitism hub". This development has significant implications for free speech and Palestine solidarity activism.

"Proud to speak today on Gadigal land at the Palestine solidarity demonstration outside the NSW ALP conference. Words can't express how angry I am or how badly we need a powerful social movement for global justice whichever government is in power"
