This is the first time this semester I'll have a public speaking engagement. My travel schedule and other commitments just haven't permitted it otherwise.
In the past, it's been great to
meet LI readers at such events, so if you are within driving distance of
Cambridge, MA, bookmark
December 4. Or maybe you have relatives, friends or children in the area who might be interested.
The event title is
"War By Other Means: Israel, BDS and the Campus."
The day-long event will be held at Harvard Law School, my
alma mater. It is open to the public, but non-students have to pay a registration fee (it is free for students). The "early-bird" sign up price is good only through November 23.
You can sign up here.
My hour-long presentation will be on the history of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (something I write about *
occasionally*). LI author Prof. Miriam Elman will be speaking on issues of faculty promotion of BDS and free speech/academic freedom.
