Teach-In Session 16
Gaza War Chronicles will examine the background and context of the current crisis, the war itself, and the manner in which it is being conducted. Mouin Rabbani, the host of the incisive Connections podcast and author of the Ongoing War on Gaza Quick Thoughts commentary, will also address the war’s local, regional, and international dimensions and repercussions. Prominent themes that have emerged or re-emerged, such as ethnic cleansing, the relationship between Zionism and anti-Semitism, genocide, and the ICJ hearings will be discussed.
Gaza in Context Collaborative Teach-In Series
We are together experiencing a catastrophic unfolding of history as Gaza endures a massive invasion of potentially genocidal proportions. This follows an incessant bombardment of a population increasingly bereft of the necessities of living in response to the Hamas attack in Israel on October 7. The context within which this takes place includes a well-coordinated campaign of misinformation and the unearthing of a multitude of essentialist and reductionist discursive tropes that dehumanize Palestinians as the culprits, despite a context of structural subjugation and Apartheid, now a matter of consensus in the human rights movement.
The co-organizers below are convening weekly teach-ins and conversations on a host of issues that introduce our common university communities, educators, researchers, and students to the history and present of Gaza, in context.

This historical context is so important yet completely missed by mainstream media. I've become a huge fan of Mouin and his insights during this crisis. Thank you.
I keep refreshing the ICJ website praying for a press release to advise when their genocide decision will be publicly broadcast. It must surely be imminent....🙏🙏🙏😎 What's happening to the Palestinian people is abhorrent and they (and humanity) need an immediate ceasefire and lasting justice! Hurry up ICJ.

I’ve been holding my breath metaphorically speaking, since 11th in regard to the provisional measures. I have no hope that the ICJ will give a fair verdict. The entirety of International Law rests on this case so to speak yet I don’t think they will move away from bending over backwards for the NATO Hegemony.
