Antisemitism, Islamophobia, and Israel/Palestine in the Context of Current Attacks on Academic and Political Freedom [UCDavis]

Current attacks on academic and political freedom at universities are justified by claims to combat antisemitism at the same time that such attacks disproportionately target Muslim, Palestinian, and Arab students and faculty. Professor Sahar Aziz joined Professor David Myers in conversation examining how these issues are influencing public debate, academic spaces, and political expression at universities across the United States. The event was co-sponsored by the University of California-Davis Department Religious Studies, Department of Jewish Studies, and Department of Middle East and South Asia Studies.
