The daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) slammed Barnard College after being removed from her dorm and the college’s dining facilities following her participation in anti-Israel protests last week.
Isra Hirsi, 21, alleged she had no way to survive after she was detained and suspended following her stay in a tent encampment with hundreds of protesters, according to a report.
“I was a little bit frantic, like, where am I going to sleep?” Hirsi said in a recent interview. “Where am I gonna go?”
“And also, all of my s*** is thrown in a random lot,” the daughter of the “Squad” member added. “It’s pretty horrible.”
Hirsi was suspended from her dorm and the college’s dining facilities for “standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide,” she said.
“I have like four shirts, two pairs of pants,” Hirsi said. “I don’t know when I can go home, and I don’t know if I ever will be able to.”
Omar’s daughter is reportedly affiliated with a campus organization called Apartheid Divest and received notice of her suspension on Thursday, prior to her detainment.
Barnard officials warned students of possible suspension on Wednesday, and after being released from detainment, Hirsi asked the school for assistance but got none, the report noted.
“I sent them an email like, ‘Hey, I rely on campus for my meals. I rely on my dining plan,’ and they were like, ‘Oh, you can come pick up a prepackaged bag of food,’ a full 48 hours after I was suspended,” she said. “There was no food support, no nothing.”
Hirsi claimed she was in custody for hours.
“We had so many people who were born female in our group that they didn’t have enough space for us,” Hirsi said. “It was a very slow process in getting everybody into the cells.”
“I was zip-tied for about seven hours and wasn’t released for about eight,” she said.

Hirsi also appeared to criticize Barnard College President Laura Rosenbury for treating Barnard students tougher than Columbia University officials are treating their student protesters.
“Only Barnard students are evicted, and I think it’s pretty crazy,” she said. “I think it’s really on a school-by-school basis, and Barnard has decided to take a very egregious stand against us.”
