From Moe Freedman at Occam's Toothbrush:
On October 12-14 the University of Michigan will be the host of the "National Student Conference on the Palestine Solidarity Movement" which they are calling a "Divestment Conference" The speakers throughout the three day event include Sami Al-Arian, Hussein Ibish, Adam Shapiro, and the rest of the usual suspects. The conference, though it will surely contain much anti-semitic hate speech, is sponsored by many organizations that like to call themselves "moderates" (like Zogby's American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee). A friend of mine has put together a page on his site that is devoted to info about the conference and includes dossiers on some of the speakers pasts. I will be part of whatever demonstrations the local students are putting together (I understand there are a few being planned), and I'll report back afterwards.Thanks, Moe. Please do.
