One State Reality: What is
Palestine Israel?
The One State Reality argues that a
one state reality already predominates in the territories controlled by the
state of Israel. The One State Reality forces a reconsideration of foundational
concepts such as state, sovereignty, and nation, encourages different readings
of history, and provides context for confronting uncomfortable questions such
as whether Israel/Palestine is an "apartheid state."

Global
Islamophobia and the Rise of Populism
Islamophobia has seen a
disturbing rise across Asia and Europe. Professors Audrey Truschke
and Ivan Kalmar focus on India and Eastern Europe, respectively, in
examining the global trend
of blaming Muslim
minorities for economic, political, and social problems, which in
turn causes anti-Muslim violence.

Peaceful Families: American Muslim
Efforts against Domestic Violence with Professor Juliane Hammer
Host Sahar Aziz invites Professor Juliane Hammer to discuss
her book Peaceful
Families: American Muslim Efforts against Domestic Violence that
addresses how Muslim advocacy work against domestic abuse is embedded
in and challenged by systems of anti-Muslim hostility and racism
while also having to contend with changing notions of gender norms
and practices. Based on ethnographic research and textual analysis,
Professor Hammer offers an intersectional analysis of how Muslim
advocates respond to these challenges both within and outside of the
Muslim communities they serve.

How campus protests exposed the
flaws in higher education diversity initiatives. Middle
East Eye. Nancy Khalil. (2024).
As the school year
begins, universities across the United States are confronting their
policies on free speech, protest and freedom of assembly. Some
are revising these policies to include swift consequences for those
who dare to follow what have been student protest norms for decades.
Similar threats loom for university staff and faculty - not only
those who protest, but even some who simply speak out. Such
policies will ultimately hamper universities from accessing a path
towards their own goals of diversity and inclusion. In recent
months, I visited more than half a dozen pro-Palestinian college
encampments in North America, from the US Midwest, to the West Coast,
to Canada. As an anthropologist, I was interested to observe that
each called itself the “liberated zone”. Read more here.

After
Gaza, ‘election madness’ is not the same on US campuses. Al
Jazeera. Nazia Kazi. (2024).
This fall, United States
campuses will be awash in what Howard Zinn called “election madness”.
It will be a veritable cornerstone of campus culture. Universities
will host debate viewing parties. Campus Republicans and Democrats
will table in our student centres, squaring off to recruit members
and organise campus events. Faculty will encourage students to attend
electorally oriented campus programming. Voter registration drives
will tout non-partisan motivations for encouraging student
participation in the upcoming presidential race.Read

The United States
provides nearly $4 billion per year in foreign aid to Israel, which
has militarily occupied the West Bank and Gaza since 1967. And yet,
few Americans know about the harsh economic, political, and human
rights conditions under which Palestinians live. The following Teach
Ins, Academic Lectures, Short Videos, and Resources offer insightful
analysis and often ignored facts about the realities facing
Palestinians living under a brutal decades-long Israeli occupation.
