Description

The intention of this episode is to uplift the voices of Palestinian Wolverines. I hope to educate the university’s campus on the history of Palestine and the occupation, genocide, and ethnic cleansing harming my homeland. We are not able to encompass everything related to this dense topic and the entirety of the Palestinian experience, but we hope to provide insight alongside resources to educate the campus community. //

• We start with discussing a brief overview on the start of the occupation taking place in Palestine
• We take a brief look into what advocating for Palestine has looked like on the University of Michigan Ann Arbor’s campus
• Then we provide an overview of the attacks and events that took place in Palestine in the Summer of 2021
• In conclusion, we discuss the implications and impacts that the events of Summer 2021 had on Palestinian students and their allies
