Coalition for Action in Higher-Ed - Displacement: From Palestine to Mexico

"Displacement is at the heart of many higher education issues. The Radical Caucus of the Modern Language Association (MLA) joined with others to bring MLA resolutions to protect faculty and staff protesting genocide (2024) and to endorse BDS (2025). The MLA took no action on our 2024 successful motion; it blocked the 2025 BDS resolution from even coming to a vote. Moderators: Bill Mullen, CAHE and Nesrine Chahine (Texas Tech U); Speakers: William I. Robinson (UC-Santa Barbara); Nesrine Chahine (Texas Tech U); David Markus (NYU); Ben Olguín (UC-Santa Barbara); Barbara Bowen (CUNY), Kristin Bergen (Ind. Scholar); Barbara Foley (Rutgers)"
