Resisting Erasure: Capital, Imperialism and Race in Palestine
Another Story Bookshop, Critical Studies in Equity and Solidarity (New College), Work and Labour Studies Programs at York University, and Faculty for Palestine present the launch of RESISTING ERASURE: CAPITAL, IMPERIALISM AND RACE IN PALESTINE. Featuring co-authors Adam Hanieh and Rafeef Ziadeh in conversation with Chandni Desai.
Why has Palestine become a defining fault line of contemporary politics?
Challenging mainstream narratives that reduce Palestine to ancient hatreds, humanitarian tragedy, or legal abstractions, Resisting Erasure places Israeli settler-colonialism within the broader historical arc of imperialism, race, and fossil capitalism in the Middle East.
Resisting Erasure is a succinct and far-reaching critique of the socio-economic and political forces that sustain the Israeli settler-colonial project. An essential introduction for anyone looking to understand what Palestine reveals about the world – and what it demands of us today.
Co-sponsored by Hearing Palestine, Toronto Palestine Film Festival, Global Labour Research Centre (York University) and the Jewish Faculty Network (Toronto Chapter).
