The Assassination Of Palestinian Poet Refaat Alareer & The Witch-hunt On College Campuses
Katie discusses the life, death and legacy of poet Refaat Alareer with his colleagues at Electronic Intifada, journalists Ali Abunimah and Nora Barrows-Friedman and his former student and current writer and translator Mahmoud Alyazji.
But first Katie talks to law professor Sahar Aziz and writer and analyst Mitchell Plitnick about their new report “Presumptively Antisemitic: Islamophobic Tropes in the Palestine-Israel Discourse” which looks at how accusations of antisemitism stifle criticism of Israel and empower its systematic violations of Palestinians’ human rights. We also talk about the witch hunts and censorship on college campuses which are distracting from Israel’s crimes.
