“Wired to Steal: Zionism & the Shaping of the Western Mind”
with Yoav Litvin & IIan Pappé In Person
(Free & Open to the public- hybrid event)
Since the Hamas assault of October 7, 2023, and for more than two years, Israel has been engaged in what has been described by a consensus of international experts as a genocide. Can Israel’s actions be explained by retribution, “self-defence,” revenge, or the quest to free hostages, or are these narratives masking something deeper? How has Israel’s decades-long occupation of Palestine shaped the violence we are witnessing today?
Wired to Steal combines vivid storytelling, clear science, and deep moral urgency to reveal the playbook of settler colonialism, and offers a roadmap for dismantling it.
• Yoav Litvin incisive political analyses and interviews, he brings a unique perspective to social movements, urban culture, and the arts. Litvin has published scientific research articles and reviews on the neuroscience of emotion in a host of academic publications in the US and Europe. His books Outdoor Gallery: New York City and 2Create: Art Collaborations in New York City are iconic documents of ephemeral art.
• Ilan Pappé is recognized globally as one of the world’s foremost historians of Israel/Palestine. He is a professor of history at the Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies and Director of the European Centre for Palestine Studies at the University of Exeter. He is the author of over twenty books, including the bestselling The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine. In 2017, he received the Middle East Monitor’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
