Kenan Thompson is supportive of college protests as long as they don’t involve his daughter in

On Saturdays episode which was hosted by Dua Lipa (who also acted as musical guest) Michael Longfellow played a talk show host who welcomed parents played by Heidi Gardner, Mikey Day and Kenan Thompson. Longfellow remarked that its been a worrisome time on university campuses throughout the country, and sought comment from his guests. While Gardner and Days characters expressed concerns about their childrens activities in the protests against Israels war against Hamas, Thompson said he was supportive of the efforts. Well I think its just great, its wonderful, he said. Nothing makes me prouder than young people using their voices to fight for what they believe in. But when Longfellow asked Thompson how he felt about his daughter, a Columbia student, specifically getting involved, the latter responded, Whats that now? When whose daughter is out there? No man, you buggin! Alexis Vanessa Roberts better have her butt in class. Let me find out that shes in one of those damn tents instead of the dorm room that I paid for, he added. When Day remarked, I thought you were in favor of the student protests, Thompson clapped back, Brother man, I am supportive of yalls kids protesting. Not my kids. My kids know better, shoot. Thompson later added how his daughter wouldnt talk about free this, free that in a protest, because Ill tell you what aint free Columbia! He also mentioned how the school has the nerve to charge $68,000 a year for tuition, and how he is out there bustin my hump to pay it. I do it all. Uber all day, Uber Eats all night, cut grass on the weekends, sell Gucci wallets out my trunk, he continued. Life coaching on IG, I bounty hunt whenever possible. At Columbia University on Tuesday, dozens of protesters entered the universitys Hamilton Hall and barricaded themselves inside before the institution asked for the New York City Police Departments assistance. At the proPalestinian protests at Columbia as well as The City College of New York, 282 people were arrested, according to the NYPD. Of the 112 people arrested at Columbia, 32 (or 29%) were not affiliated with the university, according to an NYPD official.
