Harvard Faculty Statement Against BDS

Statement opposing The Crimson's endorsement of BDS, expressing commitment to Harvard's ties with Israel

The Harvard Faculty Statement Against BDS was a signed statement published in May 2022 in response to The Harvard Crimson Editorial Board’s endorsement of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement and a Free Palestine. The statement was organized by the Academic Engagement Network. The statement expressed “steadfast commitment to Harvard’s ties with Israel” and condemned the equation of Zionism with racism and white supremacy.
