on behalf of the Hearing Palestine Team
/“//Hearing Palestine/ <https://www.facebook.com/HearingPalestine>/” is
a new initiative at the University of Toronto that provides a safe space
for Palestinians and those interested in the history & future of
Palestine to share their experience and research. The initiative is
designed to improve the university experience for students enduring, and
concerned about, anti-Palestinian discrimination on campus. We encourage
dialogues on cultural life, artistic creativity, social justice and
current affairs in Canada and the Middle East from the perspective of
Palestine. We are in solidarity with indigenous struggles everywhere and
encourage critical engagement with settler colonialism, sectarianism and
authoritarianism in the Middle East, Canada and elsewhere./
This series is hosted by the Institute of Islamic Studies and
co-sponsored by the Department of History and the Centre for the Study
of the United States (CSUS), all at the University of Toronto.
