The convergence of anti-Israel and Black Lives Matter activists is all too visible in the field of Middle East studies. For instance, the 2015 “When I See Them, I See Us” video referenced in this Moment Magazine article on the subject featured two such professors, Columbia University’s Rashid Khalidi and George Mason University’s Noura Erakat. Interestingly, both happen to be connected to the PLO: Khalidi is a former PLO spokesman and Erakat is the niece of PLO leader Saeb Erakat. It’s a small world after all.
