On April 22, 2021 the Canadian Association of University Teachers voted 
unanimously to censure the University of Toronto for rescinding an offer 
of employment to direct the International Human Rights Program, after an 
important donor expressed concerns with the candidate’s research on 
Palestine. The censure of UofT takes on new importance and urgency in 
the context of the Israeli bombardment of Gaza as well as militarized 
violence in East Jerusalem and in many other Palestinian cities and 
neighbourhoods. In this panel, we link these events by thinking about 
what can be said, by whom, and with what consequence--in the media, in 
classrooms, and in Canadian universities--about Palestine. Have the 
parameters of the speakable shifted in the current moment? And what 
spaces of discourse and resistance are available to those of us who want 
to learn, teach, research, and act in solidarity with Palestine?
