Harvard University invited a Rutgers University professor to give a speech at the Harvard Center for Middle Eastern Studies.<\/p>\n
The professor, Noura Erakat, appeared in a 2020 panel with Hamas leader Ghazi Hamad.<\/p>\n
Erakat\u2019s March 4 speech at Harvard is titled, \u201cWe Charge Genocide: The Potential and Limits of International Law.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAntisemite Noura Erakat proudly participated on a panel with senior Hamas commander Ghazi Hamad who promised \u201ca million more October 7th.\u201d So naturally, she is speaking at Harvard on Monday.

Representative Josh Gottheimer (R-NJ) condemned Rutgers for holding lectures with Erakat, sharing with The New York Post<\/a>, \u201cRutgers\u2019 continued promotion of notorious antisemites increases the spread of hate speech and the possibility of violence and harassment on campus. While differing views are a crucial part of building cultural understanding, universities cannot provide a bully pulpit for those who seek to divide and spew hate.\u201d<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for Canary Mission<\/a>, a group that \u201cdocuments people and groups that promote hatred of the USA, Israel and Jews,\u201d told Campus Reform<\/a>, \u201cRutgers University employs an antisemite who keeps company with a Hamas commander. The continued employment of Noura Erekat by Rutgers undermines their supposed commitment to combating antisemitism.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCanary Mission calls on Rutgers to fire Noura Erekat and take a decisive stand against Antisemitism. Harvard hosting Noura Erekat is yet another example of the once great institution\u2019s failure in the face of standing up to antisemitism.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
