Today, Dr. Walaa Alqaisiya was supposed to speak as part of the Spring Curatorial Program 2022, organised by Verein K., mumok - Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig Wien and Akademie der bildenden Künste Wien Dr. Alqaisiya was the only Palestinian woman invited to this event dedicated to postcolonial & feminist academic research & art. Yet, the organisers of the Programme gave in to pressure from pro-Israel groups & disinvited her, replicating the unfounded allegations. Alqaisiya's exclusion is a blatant violation of her fundamental right to freedom of expression and academic freedom, as well as her right of non-discrimination. Several contributors to the Program protested the cancellation of Dr. Walaa Alqaisiya panel. Please sign the support letter launched by the participants of the Program and stand up to restore Dr. Walaa Alqaisiyia’s reputation against defamation. >> https://bit.ly/3wXqIzT Silencing, defaming and erasing Palestinian voices & identities is racism.
