Actress Susan Sarandon — who was dropped last year from a talent agency over her anti-Jewish rant — and Shellyne Rodriguez, the ex-professor who threatened a Post reporter with a machete, were both spotted at an anti-Israel protest at Columbia University Friday.
The Oscar-winning “Thelma and Louise” star was seen strolling among demonstrators with “Free Palestine” signs while sporting a grin and an odd leather coat jacket decked out with an image of Bart Simpson on its red leather sleeve.
The 77-year-old celebrity has rocked the same quirky get-up at other anti-Israel demonstrations in recent months.
Rodriguez, who was fired from latest teaching gig at Cooper Union for anti-Israel screeds, was spotted at the protest chatting with young demonstrators.
“I am here to support the students who understand that it is very important to have their voices heard,” Rodriguez, who wore all black with a traditional Arabic head scarf around her neck, told The Post.
“It is important at this point to challenge all systems that are full of hate and bigotry and intolerance and injustice.”
