Book Discussion: Towers of Ivory and Steel
Join us for a discussion with host Dr. Laurie Brand and Author Maya Wind to learn about her recently published book, Towers of Ivory and Steel. She investigates the complicity of Israeli universities in Israeli settler colonialism and apartheid. TOWERS OF IVORY AND STEEL is a comprehensive study of how Israeli higher education institutions are complicit with violations of Palestinian rights. From tailored vocational degree programs for military and secret police to university scholars across disciplines who design their research to service military rule, Israeli academic institutions are imbricated with the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory.
