The Labour Party, Palestinian Rights and Antisemitism.

TUESDAY 26 MAY, 19:00 (GMT+1, London)

a discussion with Chris Khamis, Jenny Manson and Gilbert Achcar

Amid all the furore during recent years about supposed antisemitism within the Labour Party, the voice of the Palestinian people has been effectively suppressed. Yet the Palestinians are the main victims of institutional racism in the Middle East, having lost their homeland and their national rights more than seventy years ago.

To discuss this, we have invited Chris Khamis, a Labour Party member who has written about the hostile environment towards him and other Palestinians in the Labour Party; Gilbert Achcar, professor of international relations at SOAS and author of The Arabs and the Holocaust;  and Jenny Manson, co-chair of Jewish Voice for Labour.
