A Threat to Public SafetyPeter Eglin
August 6, 2024
What follows is an abridged version of Chapter Seven of the author's just-published book Analyzing the Israel Effect in Canada (Routledge, May 2024: https://bit.ly/482p6Fa). The chapter recounts a tale of censorship and resistance at the author's former place of employment (Wilfrid Laurier University). It begins with the text of his invited commentary on the Palestinian Question posted on the university website on 10 September 2001 and removed by the administration the following day (9/11), while the preceding pro-Israel commentary by his colleague in the political science department was left up. The part played by the relevant institutional actors - the university president, the vice-president: academic, the webmaster, the Director of Public Affairs and Publications, the faculty union, the student newspaper (The Cord Weekly), a university alumnus accusing the author of anti-Semitism, and two further members of faculty, one at the neighbouring University of Waterloo, who stood up for the author's freedom of speech - is documented via their emails and coverage by the student newspaper.
