Natick High School students staged a walkout to protest the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, expressing concerns over perceived bias against pro-Palestine sentiments. Hatcher Cheeseman-Meyer, a senior and organizer, noted the event reflected a broader generational trend, with significant sympathy for Palestinians among young Americans. However, following the protest, negative backlash arose from a critical opinion piece published in The Times of Israel, which described the event as a disturbing spectacle. This critique left some participants feeling uneasy about the fallout from their demonstration and the polarized nature of the issue.
