Hoe kijk je jezelf aan in de spiegel wanneer je karakterloos door de knieën bent gegaan voor haat?
Argentinian Jewish writer Ariana Harwicz was invited to take part in a cultural festival in Granada, Spain.
She was confirmed. She was on the program.
Then, just three days before the festival began, she was removed following pressure from pro-Palestinian activists and students.
Harwicz has publicly opposed cultural boycotts, including those targeting Israeli artists. She says what happened to her reflects a much broader trend: Jews, Israelis and others who refuse to fall in line politically are increasingly being pushed out of cultural and academic spaces.
She was invited. She was announced. Then came the pressure and she was gone.
