This week we present a webinar conversation sponsored by the Foundation for Middle East Peace. It features Dimi Khalidi, founder and director of the legal advocacy group, Palestine Legal; Lara Friedman, President of the Foundation for Middle East peace; and Peter Beinart, prolific journalist and author.
They discuss the rampant ongoing attempts by various Jewish organizations to silence criticism of Israel on US campuses, and in general squash Palestinian advocacy. We begin with Peter Beinartâs question to Dimi Khalidi.
We believe this show will be fully back on the air now at WZBC. When Boston College sent its students home, its station got switched over to robotic control. We have finally got a bit of access to the robot. If this is still not resolved, please listen online from this posting, or at 8am ET Sunday at KKRN.org (our friendly sister station).
Begun in 2004, This Week In Palestine (a weekly 8am feature of Truth and Justice Radio (TJR) is an award-winning 45-minute (or more) segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. TJR has been aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, also streamed live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; TJR's modest website, truthandjusticeradio.org, has a link to This Week In Palestine's permanent archives back thru 1-6-2008. TJR sometimes airs Palestine coverage IN ADDITION to that provided by This Week In Palestine. We hope you'll write to us at tjradio@fastmail.com if you rebroadcast our work, or have questions or comments.
