Cultural Boycott: Strategy, Impact and Principles 

Thursday, Nov 20th, 10am – 12noon
Yala Maya Kendra

How can we, as cultural workers, most effectively work collectively to meaningfully contribute to Palestinian liberation? Since the start of Israel’s live-streamed genocide in Gaza, multiple solidarity initiatives from artists have impacted some of the world’s biggest music, film, literary and arts events. Tens of thousands of filmmakers, musicians, writers and arts organisations have recently joined the boycott. In this session, leading cultural boycott activist Samir Eskanda will explore the strategic approach of the Palestinian-led global BDS movement to ending cultural complicity.
