Today we feature a classic edition of This Week In Palestine, the voice of the late Edward Said. Although Edward Said died in 2003, as a renowned Arab intellectual, we feature his lectures from time to time to keep his voice active. He is relevant to this day. Edward was a professor of literature at Columbia University, a public intellectual, and a founder of the academic field of postcolonial studies, a Palestinian American born in Mandatory Palestine, but largely educated in the United States. An author and musician, he is best known for his book Orientalism. Here he speaks on Culture and Imperialism at York University, in Toronto in 1993.
A renowned Arab intellectual, Edward Said founded the academic field of postcolonial studies at Columbia University. This classic speech provides history and analysis giving a wider view of today's lethal exploits by the U.S. and Israel.
This Week In Palestine (a weekly part of Truth and Justice Radio) is an award-winning three-quarter-hour segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. It's a regular part of Truth and Justice Radio, aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, streaming live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; TJR's website, truthandjusticeradio.org, has a link to This Week In Palestine archives back thru 1-6-2008; editions are also accessible at radio4all.net or by navigating through our playlists. (At this important time, TJR has been airing Palestine coverage IN ADDITION to that provided by This Week In Palestine.)
