It takes privilege to protest at Columbia.
The 114 anti-Israel protesters who were busted at Columbia on Thursday include members of the upper crust: an intern for New York State Attorney General Letitia James — and the daughter of a prominent UPS executive who killed an elderly couple with her truck as a teenager and got off with a slap on the wrist.
A Post deep-dive into the backgrounds of the protesters shows many list multimillion-dollar mansions as their home addresses, according to arrest records, and come from wealthy and powerful families.
Many are students at Barnard College, Columbia University’s liberal arts sister school.
Others are career activists with multiple arrests under their belts.
Minnesota congresswoman and “Squad” member Ilhan Omar’s daughter, Isra Hirsi, a Barnard student with a long history of civil disobedience, was among those cited for trespassing and taken into custody.
She was released a few hours later and declined to speak to The Post.
Also cuffed and removed from the Columbia campus was Isabel Jennifer Seward, daughter of high-ranking UPS executive William J. Seward.
In 2020, at the age of 16, Isabel veered her Toyota Tacoma pickup truck across a double yellow line on US Route 7 in Charlotte, Vermont, killing Chet and Connie Hawkins, a married couple in their 70s, according to a report by the Barre Montpelier Times Argus.
She pleaded no contest to a civil traffic ticket for “driving on roadways laned for traffic” and was issued a $220 fine — which her mother paid, according to the Rutland Herald.
Then there’s Avery Reed, a former summer intern for Letitia James who also worked part-time on “gender equality” for the Biden-Harris campaign in 2021 in Florida.
According to her LinkedIn, she hosts the podcast of the Columbia Daily Spectator, and in 2018 sat on a panel at Guild Hall in East Hampton alongside Gov. Kathy Hochul.
A message left for James seeking comment was not returned.
Columbia protester Isabella Guisti’s family owns a $3 million, 3,000 square-foot home in Savannah, Georgia’s posh South Historic District, complete with five bedrooms and bathrooms, according to Zillow.
Mia Roque, a sophomore political science student at Barnard, belongs to the Columbia University College Democrats — recently attended a “lobbying trip” to Washington, DC.
Her LinkedIn profile says she will be working for Illinois Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin as an intern this summer.
Reached by email, however, a spokesperson for the senator told The Post that his office had yet to sign any official offers for summer interns.
One of the repeat offenders arrested is Alvin Dan, 32, of Staten Island, who has racked up 10 arrests since 2020 for protest activity, including six for resisting. Dan was busted at last year’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade along with 30 other anti-Israel demonstrators who had drenched themselves in fake blood in the middle of the parade route.
Dan also made headlines last April for refusing to serve Elad Eliahu, a Jewish conservative journalist, at the Brooklyn bar where he worked.
Eliahu said Dan called him a “Zionist Fascist” and “falsely” claimed that Eliahu “harasses abortion patients” and “doxes people” through his reporting, according to allegations in a Brooklyn Supreme Court lawsuit.
