SUMMARY:Pinkwashing Israel
DESCRIPTION:NEW YORK\n\nPinkwashing\, which is the disingenuous promotion o
 f LGBTQIA-friendliness in order to downplay negative publicity\, has been 
 exploited by Israel in order to convince queers and their allies to withdr
 aw support from Palestine due to having more "democratic" views on the iss
 ue. However\, in reality\, countless of queer Palestinians are being held 
 in Israeli jails without protection under Israel's LGBTQIA-friendly legisl
 ations. Our panelists will explore the complicated role of pinkwashing in 
 Israeli-Palestinian relations.\n\nPanelists:\nIsabelle Bartter (Internatio
 nal Socialist Organization\, Rochester Branch)\nTheodore M. Brown\, Ph.D. 
 (Department of History and Rochester Chapter of Jewish Voices for Peace)\n
 Thomas P. Gibson\, Ph.D. (Department of Anthropology)\n\nModerator:\nMaria
 m Banahi\, Ph.D. Student (Hopkins Students for Justice in Palestine)\n\n
