In the past year, the movement for Palestinian liberation has attained unprecedented levels of mobilization. But strategic reflection and study is necessary to keep the movement moving. Writers Against the War on Gaza offers a series of workshops this summer to deepen the knowledge of five elements of the struggle for Palestine: “PACBI,” “Anti-repression,” “Black and Palestinian Solidarity” and “History of Palestinian Resistance.” All are free to attend.
The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (PACBI) launched in 2004. Part of the BDS movement, PACBI advocates boycotting cultural institutions for their deep complicity in the denial of Palestinian rights. We’ll discuss how this fits into the Palestinian liberation movement, what makes something subject to boycott, and how workers and organizations can answer and amplify the PACBI call.
