DESCRIPTION:Almost four months into the war on Gaza, the International Court of Justice 
 has directed Israel to prevent genocide in Gaza, yet refrained from 
 ordering a ceasefire. In December 2023, the Supreme Court of India 
 rubber-stamped the government’s unilateral abrogation of Article 370, 
 which previously afforded Kashmir a special status that included the right 
 of self-determination. Discussions of the international rule of law, 
 settler colonialism, and its violence have taken the center stage. At this 
 dark moment in history, we must address the connections, parallels, and 
 distinctions between Palestine and Kashmir, for as the Indigenous Peoples 
 in North America remind us, the settler colonial project and genocide is 
 ongoing.\n\nThe event consists of two threads: the first one will cover the 
 broader themes of legal framework and ramifications in Turtle Island, 
 Palestine, and Kashmir; the second will hone in on the lived experiences 
 from the three geographies, providing a grounded view of resistance and 
 ways forward as they relate to settler colonialism.  \n\nSpeakers:\n-Turtle 
 Island: Sylvia McAdam (Assistant Professor, Windsor Law) & Megan Scribe 
 (Assistant Professor, Toronto Metropolitan University)\n- Kashmir: Imraan 
 Mir (Attorney, writer, researcher)  & Ather Zia (Associate Professor, 
 Anthropology and Gender Studies, University of Northern Colorado)\n- 
 Palestine: Jonathan Kuttab (International Human Rights attorney)  & Mariam 
 Barghouti (Palestinian American researcher, writer, journalist based in 
 Ramallah)\n- Moderators: Azeezah Kanji (Legal academic and writer, Toronto) 
 & Dean Accardi (Assistant Professor of History and Global Islamic Studies, 
 Connecticut College)\n
