Deadly Exchange: Israel and U.S.

August 12, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Deadly Exchange: Israel and U.S.  
Thursday, August 12th @ 7 PM online
Zoom: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83334769540
Since 2002, thousands of US law enforcement officials have trained with Israeli military forces in the context of the “War on Terror,” learning about Israeli methods and technologies of surveillance, racial profiling, and suppression of protest. As Black Lives Matter and other social movements seek accountability and an end to police violence, why are US police departments training with occupying Israeli forces? How do we resist the militarization of police and the criminalization of US citizens and immigrants? And how is the movement for Justice in Palestine organizing for justice and real safety from the US to Palestine? Speaker Eran Efrati is the executive director of Researching the American-Israeli Alliance  (RAIA), and an investigative researcher into the Israeli military and arms industry. He has worked with the  International Criminal Court and participated in both independent and UN investigations into Israeli military  operations. His investigative reports have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and  The Guardian, among others. He currently serves as chair of the board for Jewish Voice for Peace, and his  research focuses on military and police partnerships between the United States and Israel.  Organized by Women Against Military Madness/End Domestic Militarism Committee and endorsed by the Anti-War Committee.
