HAW RESOLVES TO JOIN THE BDS MOVEMENT 4-20-14
[haw-info] HAW Proposes Work on
Israel/Palestine and BDS
haw-info-bounces@stopthewars.org on behalf of Van Gosse
[vgosse@fandm.edu]

Dear members and friends of HAW,
Following the American
Studies Association's endorsement of a boycott of Israeli academic
institutions, and the ongoing debate in the Modern Language Association
over a resolution to censure Israel's violations of academic freedom, the
Steering Committee of HAW began considering what (if any) action we should
take.
After an extensive discussion, we agreed that the most appropriate
process was for the Steering Committee to vote on whether HAW as an
organization should publicly endorse BDS ("a campaign of boycotts,
divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with
international law and Palestinian rights" -- BDS movement website, http://www.bdsmovement.net/).
The majority of the SC has voted "yes" on this motion,
committing us to begin work. This was not a simple decision; some members spoke
strongly in favor of the position taken by historians Linda Gordon, Alice
Kessler-Harris, and Elaine Tyler May, that an academic and cultural boycott was
counter-productive and would be divisive, and that US activists should focus on
US policy, in particular its military support for Israel's illegal occupation.
Others countered that we can, in fact, do both, that the boycott was the
call of Palestinian civil society which deserves to be heeded, and that it will
have the greatest effect inside Israel ,
in terms of motivating a turn to real negotiations and an end to the
occupation.
We support an academic boycott (of institutions & their
funding streams, not of individuals) because most large universities in Israel have
been helping the Israeli government to use academic research as a cover for
propaganda. Israel's government has pushed ahead aggressively on archaeological
excavations that expropriate Muslim holy sites and Palestinian village lands,
and much “archaeological research” in East Jerusalem and elsewhere has
proceeded with the financial backing of right-wing Israeli foundations, through
university conduits. The area around the Western Wall, e.g., has been
designated an "Archaeological Park " by the Israeli government, consolidating
Israeli ownership of a space that has in the past been shared with Arabs; Hebron has similarly
designated nearby Palestinian lands “archaeological sites.” The trick is well
known and understood by Israelis (see, for instance,http://www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-1.567898). We as
historians need to counter this falsification of academic research.
What shall we do now? How should this decision be
implemented? Actions in support of the academic and cultural boycott, and more
generally against the occupation of Palestinian lands, are an entirely new
arena of work for HAW, and we need to recruit a group of members who want to
develop a program. We propose the following steps:
1. Form a working group of people interested in challenging the
Israeli occupation of Palestine , and US support
for Israel ,
including work on an academic and cultural boycott;
2. If you are interested in participating in this group,
please send an email to Jeri Fogel (fogelj@mail.montclair.edu) and/or
Van Gosse (van.gosse@fandm.edu);
3. Once HAW's Israel/Palestine Working Group (temporary
name) is formed, we will generate an online discussion of its process and
goals, and then hold a conference call to discuss more in-depth;
4. The result will be a plan of work for this and the coming
academic year, including possible subgroups.
We welcome your thoughts and queries, and we hope many of you will
sign up for the new working group.
