"Repressing Opposition to Israel" at U.S. Campuses
As colleges and universities gear up for Fall term, in this week's episode of Old Mole Variety Hour, Desiree Hellegers hosts as we rebroadcast an episode on "Repressing Opposition to Israel" from KPFA/Pacifica's show Against the Grain. The April 17 show homes in on "U.S. higher education ... in the grips of a new McCarthyism over criticisms of Israel. Sociologist William Robinson, himself the target of an unsuccessful campaign by the Anti-Defamation League, considers reports that the Israeli state is directly intervening to stoke repression on U.S. campuses and in U.S. society. He also discusses the political economic conjuncture and why the Palestinians have come to be regarded by elites as a dispensable population."
