For the past 17 months, the Israeli military has murdered children, pregnant women, parents, elders, and other Palestinian humans. International human rights organizations have documented the horrific torture (including abominable sexual violence) enacted by the Israeli military against thousands (!) of Palestinian children and adults. If an institution of learning offers a platform for those participating and celebrating these crimes against humanity, they become complicit by tacitly or explicitly justifying and normalizing it. NO members of the occupying Israeli military or government should be allowed to contribute to the pro-genocidal propaganda campaign on a campus or anywhere in North Carolina! As an educator, parent, Charlotte Metro resident, and American citizen, I urge you to prevent this irresponsible, unethical, and immoral "lecture" from taking place on your campus.
