This panel features remarks by Ambassador Feda Abdelhady-Nasser, Dr. Lawrence Davidson, and Dr. Sara Roy who respectively share their thoughts on the status of Jerusalem, the effectiveness of BDS, and the current situation in Gaza.
Rachel Zoll: The top legislative body of the United Church of Christ voted Tuesday to divest from companies with business in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories, in a sign of the growing momentum of a U.S. protest movement against Israeli policy.
Philip Farah: While the media has mostly focused on the violence, labor and student unions, women’s groups, and village committees have always played a prominent role in the struggle. However, civil society leaders have always had to contend with Israeli repression.
Ann Laura Stoler: …the dispossession of Palestinians and the colonial nature of the Israeli state have stayed on the outer fringes of anthropology for so long.
Through educational events, humanitarian support, and cultural preservation, the Jerusalem Fund is helping build the movement for Palestinian liberation.
