Settler Colonialism from America to Palestine - Walter Hixson
Walter Hixson is the author of a half-dozen books on the history of U.S. foreign relations. He has taught history for 36 years and is currently distinguished professor of history at the University of Akron. His most recent books are "American Settler Colonialism: A History" (2013) and "Israel's Armor: The Israel Lobby and the First Generation of the Palestine Conflict." (2019).
Hixson will answer cross disciplinary questions about foreign policy, the Israel lobby and settler colonialism. What are the core objectives of settler colonialism? Why must the population targeted for removal be the object of hatred and portrayed as primitive, uncivilized and "savage?" Massacres can exist without genocide, but can genocide exist without massacres? Are indigenes ever allowed to avail themselves of the colonizer's means of communications and justice system to argue their case? What Is perpetrator trauma?
What systemic purpose do concepts such as the "Doctrine of Discovery," "Manifest Destiny" and "chosenness" serve in settler colonialism? Is settler colonialism always a "zero-sum-game?" Why was ongoing settler destruction of Indian crops, buffalo, horses and burning homes such an important strategy? How does this compare to Israeli attacks on Palestinian electricity generation, bulldozing homes, and cutting off access to fishing? What roles do the major Israel lobby organizations such as AIPAC, the American Jewish Committee, ADL, etc. play in the ongoing colonization? Are there any opportunities for American redemption by cutting off official and nonofficial U.S. support for Israeli settler colonialism?
