Anti-Israel Tufts U. Prof. Thomas Abowd to Teach ‘Colonizing Palestine’

An upcoming course at Tufts University titled “Colonizing Palestine” and taught by anti-Israel professor Thomas Abowd, has garnered condemnation from the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America (CAMERA), StandWithUs, the AMCHA Initiative, and the Endowment for Middle East Truth (EMET). Abowd, a BDS supporter who taught for a year at terror-friendly Birzeit University near Ramallah, is affiliated with the Tufts Colonialism Studies program.
