Palestine is a colonized territory between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. It is also a potent global symbol of resistance to injustice. From the Black Lives Matter movement in Ferguson to the pipeline resistance at Standing Rock, activists across North America and around the world have drawn courage and inspiration from the Palestinian struggle for freedom.
In We Could Be Free, scholar and activist Steven Salaita examines the historical, material, and ideological connections between struggles against state violence and colonization around the world and helps us to imagine the possibility of a freedom beyond oppression and exploitation.
Steven Salaita is the author of eight books, most recently Inter/Nationalism: Decolonizing Native America and Palestine and Uncivil Rites: Palestine and the Limits of Academic Freedom. He is a regular columnist for Electronic Intifada and a member of the Organizing Committee of the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI).
