Divestment, Palestine, and Solidarity at Vanderbilt (S1:E12)
Description
In this episode of Religion and Justice, hosts George and Gabby sit down with members of the Vanderbilt Divest Coalition, Palestine Hurra Collective, Vanderbilt Divinity School Students Against Genocide, and Vanderbilt Graduate Workers United to discuss the urgent issues of divestment, Palestine, and the Vanderbilt administration's response to the Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
Join us as we hear firsthand accounts of activism and solidarity on-campus, explore the motivations behind divestment efforts, and examine the broader implications for justice and human rights. From challenging institutional complicity to advocating for Palestinian rights, this conversation sheds light on the power of collective action and the importance of standing in solidarity with oppressed communities.
