Policy paper by Tariq Habash explains how US higher education institutions are using laws and policies to suppress pro-Palestine speech and activism. It examines how accusations of antisemitism and the misuse of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act are leveraged to silence students and faculty advocating for Palestinian rights. Further, it highlights the broader implications of this repression on academic freedom, free speech, and political discourse on campuses—and offers policy recommendations necessary to protect constitutional rights and academic freedom on campuses. This source is valuable for research on pro-Palestinian activism, campus activism, freedom of speech, and censorship.
