Great news in the ongoing thaw of the ice age of permanent war: Norman Finkelstein will be talking about Gaza at Harvard Law School in two weeks, and critical legal theorist Duncan Kennedy will be moderating the talk. Wow. Beautiful. This is not just a sign that pro-Goldstone speech is ebbing into elite precincts, it is a sign that a gifted scholar, Norman Finkelstein, who has been harshly treated by the American academy, is getting some overdue props. The event:
HLS Justice for Palestine and the Middle East Law Students Association Present "This Time We Went Too Far" Truth and consequences of the Gaza invasion a talk by Norman Finkelstein
Moderated by Duncan Kennedy, Carter Professor of General Jurisprudence
Thursday, March 25, 2010 7:15pm in Langdell South, Harvard Law School Co-Sponsored by the National Lawyers Guild-HLS Chapter, the Alliance for Justice in the Middle East at Harvard University, and the Palestine Caucus at HKS
