THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2022 — 6:30 PM TO 9:00 PM EDT

Honouring Feridun Hamdullahpur, President Emeritus of the University of Waterloo

The Faculty of Arts is very pleased to present Dr. Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Modern Arab Studies in the History Department at Columbia University, for this special lecture and panel discussion in support of Palestinian studies at the University of Waterloo.

Based on his 2020 book, The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance 1917-2017, Professor Khalidi will lay out a framework for understanding the conflict over Palestine. Not a chronicle of victimization, nor a whitewash of the mistakes of Palestinian leaders, this talk re-evaluates the forces arrayed against the Palestinians, and offers an illuminating new view of a conflict that continues to this day.
