Censoring Children

1 Comment

MIT’s Noam Chomsky and Barbara Lubin of the Middle East Children’s Alliance discuss A Child’s View of Gaza, the book of Palestinian children’s artwork slated for exhibition at the Oakland Museum of Children’s Art.  The exhibition was cancelled at the last minute without explanation.  Have children become pawns in a larger conflict?  How has this come about?  What does it say about the possibilities for peaceful resolution of the Israeli/Palestinian impasse?

Recorded November 7, 2012                 

Co-sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace, Boston; American Jews for a Just Peace; and the Middle East Education Project at First Parish in Cambridge.
