Listen "This Jewish academic shared an anti-Zionist post. She was then fired | Maura Finkelstein | Real Talk"
Episode Synopsis
Over a year ago in January 2024, Jewish-American academic Maura Finkelstein found herself placed on administrative leave by her institution at the time: Muhlenberg College. A few months later she was fired, despite having tenure. The reason? She was told it was because of a post she shared on her Instagram story which heavily condemned Zionism. Finkelstein joined us on Real Talk to reflect on this experience, what it taught her, and the state of crackdowns by US universities on pro-Palestinian activism. Real Talk is a Middle East Eye interview programme hosted by Mohamed Hashem. Catch all our Real Talk episodes on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMyaP73Ho1yRh7NMaNqOTpWkGSJPC8kIm
