Please join CAHE on Thursday 3 April, 6pm EST for our Organizing for Palestine in US Scholarly Associations Roundtable, featuring organizers of boycott, scholasticide, and genocide resolutions at leading scholarly associations from around the country. Panelists relate their experiences working to secure institutional recognition of one of the gravest human catastrophes of our time at venues such as the American Association of University Professors, the Modern Language Association, the American Historical Association, the Middle East Studies Association, and others; their successes and failures; and they lessons they learnt for future organizing. To be followed by facilitated discussion and Q&A.
