Palestine, American Law, and the Dilemma of Solidarity and Resistance
A talk by Wadie Said (University of Colorado School of Law)
Much of what we are experiencing with respect to the American government's position on the current assault on Gaza reflects how American law has been structured to deny both solidarity with, and resistance by, the Palestinian people to Israeli military occupation and apartheid. This talk will examine this state of affairs and offer remarks on whether there is room for reimagining an American legal landscape to offer the possibility of truly supporting the Palestinian people in their quest for self-determination.
