This is the best summary I could come up with:

A York University sociology professor who studies protests and at least two other employees of the school have been placed on leave from their jobs after they were charged in connection with hate-motivated mischief over the defacing of a Toronto Indigo bookstore.

Colleagues and students have announced an hour-long walkout from class on Tuesday afternoon in protest of the suspensions, which organizers say will interrupt studies, create fear and damage the reputations of those accused.

Police announced charges against her and 10 others last week for allegedly tossing red paint on the downtown store and pasting posters accusing its Jewish founder, Heather Reisman, of supporting genocide.

On Monday, Steven Tufts, a geography professor and labour expert who is one of the York academics organizing the walk-out, said Dr. Wood and two others had been placed on administrative leave last Thursday – the same day the police announced the charges after arresting most of the accused early Wednesday morning.

Police charged the group of mostly middle-aged Torontonians with hate-motivated mischief for putting up posters depicting Ms. Reisman, Indigo’s chief executive officer, on a fake book cover titled Funding Genocide.

Since the Nov. 10 defacing, pro-Palestinian protesters have drawn a direct link from that chain’s profits to Ms. Reisman’s co-founding in 2005 of the HESEG Foundation, which gives scholarships to Jewish people who move to Israel to join the Israeli army.
