Location:Segal Theater at the CUNY Graduate Center365 5th Ave, New York, NY 10016 US

Please join us for a conversation between Maya Wind (UC Riverside) and Tarek Ismail (CUNY Law) discussing Wind's book Towers of Ivory and Steel and Israeli universities' complicity in Israel's oppression of Palestinians.

As Wind's book shows, Israeli universities have long enjoyed a reputation as liberal bastions of freedom and democracy. Drawing on extensive research and making Hebrew sources accessible to the international community, Maya Wind shatters this myth and documents how Israeli universities are directly complicit in the violation of Palestinian rights.

Please RSVP to join us in person.
