Arab Talk With Jess & Jamal

Former Executive Director of Human Rights Watch Kenneth Roth discusses the reasons why Dean Elmendorf rescinded his fellowship offer at Harvard’s Carr Center for Human Rights Policy. After a major public and academic outcry, Elmendorf reversed his shameful decision, but many questions remain unanswered. Jess & Jamal revisit previous cases when academic institutions succumbed to the Israeli lobby and its surrogates by penalizing professors who criticized Israel's Apartheid and other human rights violations against Palestinians.
