“When identity politics comes up against power - power wins”
In a frank conversation with Middle East Eye, political scientist Norman Finkelstein explains how fears around Jewish safety on US campuses were exploited and used to silence debate on Gaza and Israel.
In his 2022 book ‘I'll Burn That Bridge When I Get to It’, Finkelstein is highly critical of identity politics and ‘cancel culture’, and addresses being himself cancelled by some pro-Palestinian activists over his critiques of the BDS movement.
On this episode of The Big Picture Podcast, we welcome back Professor Finkelstein to talk about the aftermath of the US elections, Israel’s war in Gaza and shifting tactics of the Palestine movement.
