Palestine, Israel, the Manufactured Controversy Around Ethnic Studies, and Where We Go From Here - Passing Period #109

All of the Above Podcast

This Week: As graphic images and stories of the march towards ethnic cleansing in Palestine and Israel saturate the largely one-sided American media landscape, we dig into the weaponization of accusations of antisemitism against the expansion of ethnic studies here in California. Whose stories get told in America’s schools, and whose don’t? How do we confront the strange bedfellows of right wing, white supremacists and right wing, pro Israeli occupation forces who join together to suppress ethnic studies and limit the teaching of truthful history in our schools? In addition, we have an important update on a Texas school district that continues to punish a Black student for wearing his natural hair.

For more discussion on how schools should discuss the occupation and apartheid in Israel and Palestine, and how schools can support Arab and Muslim

students generally, check out our episode with Dr. Sawsan Jaber. Watch or listen here.
