Notas del episodio

In this episode, Dr. Thea Renda Abu El-Haj joins us to discuss her book Unsettled Belonging and her current work with Palestinian Nakba generation teachers. The discussion moves from how education invisibilizes U.S. empire to the ways that student encampments illuminate alternative spaces of scholarship and resistance. Dr. Abu El-Haj also explores the relentless censorship of those writing about Palestine and how people, especially those in Palestine, still do the work of fighting for a free Palestine.
