por Another Education Is Possible
Eli wrote a book, Beyond Education, that most directly influenced the ideas that have shaped this podcast. In addition to discussing his work as it relates to Palestinian liberation and scholasticide, Eli shares a thoughtful, deeply personal educational biography. He describes feelings of unbelonging in Jewish summer camp, joyous moments of radicalization in basement punk shows, encountering Arundhati Roy and Edward Said during undergraduate studies, and a million different organizing projects that study and struggle toward another world. Eli Meyerhoff is a visiting scholar in Duke University’s John Hope Franklin Humanities Institute and program coordinator of the Social Movements Lab. He earned a PhD in political science from the University of Minnesota. Eli is the author of Beyond Education: Radical Studying for Another World
