Description
Check out this video to watch the To Stand with Palestine: Transnational Resistance.
Professor Dana will examine the changing discourse on Palestine and Israel in the US over the past two decades and discuss how transnational Palestinian connections helped forge solidarities with marginalized communities in the US.
The World Issues Forum series is free and open to the public. Talks are held at 12:00pm in Fairhaven College Auditorium, on the top floor of the Fairhaven College main building to the rear (east) side. If you enter from the west entrance (halfway between the second and third floor facing parking lot 12A), take the half-flight of stairs to the left and continue to east side of the building from there. You'll see the door to the auditorium a little to your left.
Join us at WWU or online on Zoom!
