Part One of our Zionism series discussed history and definitions of the term. Part Two examined the consequences of Zionism on Palestinian lives. Part Three will examine Zionist assaults on free speech and protest rights of Americans and Canadians and how to confront them.
Zionists are promulgating anti-discrimination laws at the national, state/province and local levels, defining “antisemitism” based on the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition which equates criticism of Israel with discrimination against Jews. We will discuss campaigns to adopt the IHRA definition; examples of successful resistance; and strategies to uphold our rights of free speech, free press, and nonviolent protest.
