After years of right-wing assaults on higher education, attacks took a new form in 2023 and 2024 that has been described as the new McCarthyism. As students across the country organize protests against Israel’s war on Gaza, decades-long taboos in academia around criticism of Israel–the “Palestine exception”–are shattered. The story of this movement unfolds in THE PALESTINE EXCEPTION—a new documentary directed by Portland-based filmmakers Jan Haaken and Jennifer Ruth. Denise Morris interviews Jan and Jennifer about the film and the upcoming screening event at Lincoln Hall at Portland State University on Thursday, November 21st at 7 pm. The screening is followed by a panel and is free and open to the public.
