Salim Vally is a member of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign in South Africa as well as a faculty member at the University of Johannesburg.  He was active in the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa.  He will be speaking on the University of Johannesburg's recent decision to cut its ties with Israel's Ben Gurion University, an important victory for the global movement for BDS and campus divestment.
 
A speaker from the Students Against Israeli Apartheid will be presenting the recent Divestment initiative that was launched in March at the University of Toronto and York University.  For more information: http://www.toronto.saia.ca/
 
The event will be moderated by Faculty for Palestine, a cross-campus network who has been working in coalition with the SAIA Toronto campus divestment campaign.  See: www.caiaweb.org/faculty
