AntiPalestinianism: a history
Ussama Makdisi, University of California Berkeley
Tue, 9/15 · 4:30 pm—6:00 pm · 219 Aaron Burr Hall
Near Eastern Studies Department
Princeton Palestinian Studies Colloquium
This talk draws attention to how and why Palestinian history and humanity have been consistently denied, removed from view, and overridden by a philozionist story of Western liberalism. The talk will explore the ethical and political consequences of this denial, and why Palestine has remained a taboo topic for so long, even amidst the first livestreamed genocide of modern history.
