May 14 marks the 62nd anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba (Catastrophe) and the beginning of the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian people. The repressive occupation continues today, enforced through policies reflective of the social, political, and economic segregation founded on race that was characteristic of apartheid South Africa. Apartheid in South Africa was dismantled after the international community began to BOYCOTT, DIVEST, and SANCTION the country. Taking from this legacy, it is time for a new movement for a generation of socially conscious people it is time to BOYCOTT, DIVEST, and SANCTION Israeli Apartheid and its ILLEGAL OCCUPATION of Palestine.
William Robinson is a professor of Sociology at the University of California Santa Barbara. Widely known for his scholarly-activist role, he attempts to link his academic work to struggles in the United States, in the Americas, and around the world for social justice. Robinson received much acclaim and criticism for his actions last year after he sent his students an email comparing graphic images of Jews in the Holocaust to pictures of Palestinians caught up in Israels recent Gaza offensive.
