Artist Emily Jacir: Rampant Censorship Is Part of the Genocidal Campaign to Erase Palestinians
Support our work:
We speak with award-winning Palestinian American artist and filmmaker Emily Jacir, whose event in Berlin in October was canceled after Israel launched its ongoing assault on Gaza. Jacir decries a pattern of “harassment, baseless smear campaigns, canceling shows, canceling talks“ conducted against Palestinian artists in Germany and around the world. “It’s very much part of a coordinated movement,“ she says, connecting global censorship of diasporic Palestinian voices with the violent “targeted destruction of culture in Gaza,“ which she calls a “part of genocide.“
