Shameful and blatant firing of a beloved, expert lecturer because of his passionate solidarity for Palestine.
Free speech is not protected at UBC if that speech calls attention to Israel’s genocide.
Sean is far from the only one.
I'm a sessional lecturer at UBC's School of Population & Public Health. I was recently informed that I would no longer be teaching in the school.
In April, I asked why the school would not sponsor & advertise an event related to Gaza w/ a speaker from the respected NGO Save the Children. 🧵
