In one clip that was praised by Governor Tate Reeves, students drowned out pro-Palestine demonstrators by singing “The Star-Spangled Banner”:

But another clip posted by Stacey J. Spiehler shows White students mocking a Black protester by mimicking monkey noises and gestures suggestive of odor, and chanting “Lock her up!”:

The shocking video earned praise from Republican legislator Rep. Mike Collins, who posted the video and wrote “Ole Miss taking care of business.”
