Edward Said Memorial Lecture

Free Palestine protest in Tharawal country/Wollongong, November 2

As Israel’s war on Palestine entered its 56th week, protesters demanded Australia expel the Israeli ambassador, impose sanctions on the rogue state and stop crucial weapons parts from being sent to abet its genocide.

The 11th Annual Edward Said Memorial Lecture, presented by the Australian Friends of Palestine Association, was held on September 5 at the University of Adelaide. Dr Salam Fayyad was the guest speaker. He was the inaugural President of the State of Palestine (2007-2013) and one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people in 2010.
