SUMMARY:Book: To Stand with Palestine: Transnational Resistance and Political Evolution in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Karam Dana\nThursday February 13th\, 2025 @ 7:00PM – 8:00 PM\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Karam Dana discusses his new book To Stand with Palestine: Transnational Resistance and Political Evolution in the United States. It provides a new lens on activism around Palestinian issues\, demonstrating how the global Palestinian diaspora has driven transnational political movements. \nIn recent years\, attitudes in the United States toward the Palestinian cause have shifted dramatically. Although Palestinians have long been demonized in U.S. media and politics\, their struggle portrayed as illegitimate\, emergent progressive voices increasingly challenge the status quo on Israel and Palestine and express solidarity with Palestinian resistance. What accounts for this change and its evolution? \nKaram Dana explores the ways that exile has shaped Palestinian identity and allowed for new forms of global activism. He examines the social\, political\, economic\, and technological forces that have created space for Palestinian voices to be heard by wider audiences worldwide. Drawing on interviews with scholars and advocates—including members of the Palestinian diaspora and Jewish American activists—as well as public opinion data and media analysis\, Dana traces how global Palestinian communities have influenced American views. He addresses the backlash against pro-Palestinian advocacy but argues that solidarity with Palestinians—both in the United States and globally—will continue to strengthen. Timely and insightful\, To Stand with Palestine offers an inside look at how Palestinians have shared their story with the world and why sympathy for their plight is growing\, with significant implications for the global political landscape. \nKaram Dana is the Alyson McGregor Distinguished Professor of Excellence and Transformative Research and the founding director of the American Muslim Research Institute at the University of Washington Bothell.
