Join us for a part two of our conversation series where we discuss an essay by historian and scholar  Robin D. G. Kelley. The essay explores the historical roots and political meaning of Black–Palestinian solidarity. Challenging the idea that solidarity is based solely on shared identity or analogy, Kelley traces connections to the global anti-imperialist movements of the late 1960s and the broader struggle to imagine new worlds rooted in liberation and justice.

This conversation is part of our pre-reading discussion series leading up to our annual public lecture. Participants will reflect on the essay’s key themes, consider the history of international solidarity movements, and engage in collective dialogue about what it means to build principled alliances in the present.
