About this Event
Join us for the Edward Said Memorial Lecture, featuring Moustafa Bayoumi, a former student of Edward Said and a renowned writer, journalist, & professor. Bayoumi will explore "The Question of Palestine in America," offering insights shaped by his time learning directly from Edward Said.
As the genocide in Gaza continues, the bombing of Lebanon proceeds, the dispossession of Palestinians in the West Bank advances, and the American leadership prepares to shift from a Biden to a Trump Administration, assessing the present and future prospects for Palestine is of the utmost urgency. In this lecture, Moustafa Bayoumi will examine this state of affairs through the lens of how Palestine has historically operated, both as an idea and as a political struggle, in American culture, and why the Question of Palestine continues to matter in America.
