Resource provides a brief introduction to how interest groups linked to the Israeli government in the US weaponize Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, a law which requires federally funded institutions to maintain and enforce non-discrimination policies, in an attempt to shut down Palestine activism. Includes a webinar on how Title VI complaints, which falsely conflate criticism of Israel with antisemitism, have impacted students and faculty on various college campuses. This source is valuable for research on the Israel lobby, censorship of pro-Palestine voices, free speech repression, the weaponization of antisemitism, campus activism, International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, and Title VI.
