About the Webinar
Longstanding trends of repressing Palestine speech and activism have increased by orders of magnitude as Israel’s war on Gaza continues. From student groups getting shut down to employees being fired to physical attacks on Palestine sympathizers, the last two months have featured a torrent of repressive activity in the United States and Europe.
Arab Center Washington DC and the Institute for Middle East Studies at George Washington University are convening a panel of experts to discuss the most recent trends in repressing Palestine activism, strategies for defending the rights of dissenters, and expected future measures to silence Palestine sympathizers.
