<div><font color="#333333"><i>As the situation in
Israel/Palestine seems to become ever more intractable and
protracted, the need for new ways of looking at recent
developments and their historical roots is more pressing
than ever. Bearing this in mind, Yasmeen Abu-Laban and
Abigail B. Bakan discuss the historic and contemporary
dynamics in Israel/Palestine, and their international
reverberations, from the unique vantage point of 'race',
racialization, racism and anti-racism. They therefore
offer close analysis of the 'idea' of Israel and the
'absence' of Palestine by examining the concepts of race
and identity in the region, and how these ideas
reverberate globally. Themes addressed include gender,
Indigeneity, environment, surveillance, the BDS movement,
apartheid and human rights.</i><br>
<b>Join us to celebrate the publication of <i>Israel,
Palestine and the Politics of Race.</i> Meet the authors
and a panel of outstanding commentators, and share
refreshments and good company.</b></font></div>
