Muslims leaders say anti-Palestinian racism is casting a chill on free speech

CANADA, AUG 6 – Muslim leaders report systemic suppression of Palestinian voices in Canadian institutions and call for government action to recognize anti-Palestinian racism as a distinct form of discrimination.

  • Muslim leaders say institutions are infringing free speech, citing a recent report that highlights rising anti-Palestinian racism since October 7, 2023.
  • Following October 7, 2023, Hamas-led militants’ attack on Israeli communities prompted schools and employers to link Palestinian culture with terrorism and retaliate against those speaking out.
  • The report cites cases of law students, teachers, and medical professionals facing investigations, while the Israeli government denied involvement in allegations of foreign interference.
  • Jasser’s statement highlights that students face punishment for displaying Palestinian symbols, as reports indicate institutions infringe speech rights, according to the report.
  • The report published Wednesday urges provincial governments to develop curriculum, train staff, and educate students on Palestinian culture, identity, and Nakba history.
