Symposium (2) of the Palestine_Forum titled "The War on Gaza in Western and Arab Media” with Yara Hawari, Ben White, Yousef Munayyer, and Wael Abdelal, moderated by Muzna Shihabi.

In this third webinar, we debated specifically the silencing of Palestine and Palestinian voices. Though attempts to silence speech on Palestine and Palestinian voices is not new, there has been an intensification of repression across the West, particularly in parts of Europe, the UK and in the US. Some of this occurs though specific tools such as the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance ‘working definition’ of antisemitism (IHRA), which conflates criticism of Israel and Zionism with anti-Jewish racism.

What is politically conditioned funding? How does it impact Palestinian civil society and the Palestinian liberation movement at large?

This webinar has been organized in order to elevate Palestinian scholars as they discuss the stakes of the American Anthropological Association's upcoming vote to boycott Israeli academic institutions.

This webinar highlights the history that led to the Nakba, and the various zionist myths surrounding such history.  It also emphasizes the ins and outs of the Palestinian struggle for justice and liberation, how to use social media as an element of our activism, and Israeli accountability for its crimes against the Palestinian people. Lastly, it assesses U.S. policy in relation to Israel/Palestine and how we can further the cause in the U.S.
