SUMMARY:War and Visual Politics in Palestine/Israel: Conversation with Anthropologist Rebecca Stein
DESCRIPTION:How do activists use smartphones and technology to bear witness and document Israeli state violence and colonization? And how do the Israeli state and international Zionist movements respond to the perceived threat of these new technologies?
