At the 15'48\" mark, there is a mention of a Jewish man being shot by a CAMERA-affiliated agitator. In this episode on CAMERA and the Camera Education Institute, we’re hearing from education organizers Sana Fadel, a member of Sawa: Newton-Area Alliance for Peace and Justice, and Nora Lester Murad, of Drop The ADL from Schools. We talk through how Zionist institutions are using education as a platform for much broader political leverage, the split between the ways those institutions aim for respectability in the policy arena while using smear and violence in the streets, and the interconnections among Zionist organizations and figures. Be sure to read Lara Deeb and Jessica Winegar on the history of these institutions, linked in the show notes.
