Over the past several months of 2008, Israel advocacy organizations have entered a period of ongoing mobilization in an effort to decisively counter what they see as the growing influence and impact of the Palestine solidarity movement. On campuses, we are seeing an increasing re-branding of Israel in attempts to counter these efforts.
Join us for a discussion on what access to education looks like on the ground for Palestinian students. Learn about the realities they face and how the structure of apartheid affects their lives. Learn about how the Academic Boycott against apartheid South Africa was instrumental in the defeat of apartheid. You can help the efforts for the liberation of Palestinians from apartheid Israel. All students and faculty are encouraged to find out how to plug into the fight to end Israeli apartheid and the movement for Boycott Divestment Sanctions on Canadian and South African campuses.
