Academic Freedom Under Attack [AAUP-AFT]

The Rutgers University AAUP-AFT hosted a teach-in on the multiple threats to academic freedom since October 2023 targeted at faculty and students who defend the humanity of Palestinians and critique Israel’s military assault on Gaza as a genocidal campaign. Professor Sahar Aziz discussed the systematic harassment and intimidation of Muslim, Arab and Palestinian American professors by self-described pro-Israeli organizations, politicians and university administrators whose political objective is to censor criticism of the state of Israel.
