Doctoral student and anti-Zionist activist Hadas Emma Kedar shares her experience being a student in the Israeli school system and the deeply troubling ways it “taught” students misleading versions of Israeli history, denied the existence of the Palestinian people and —notably through field trips to Auschwitz — used fear to mould and shape their Zionist identities. Kedar, while drawing from her insight as an eventual school teacher herself, illuminates how she came to reject such teachings and developed an anti-Zionist outlook, informed by the necessity of permanently ending Israel’s subjugation of and ongoing genocide against Palestinians.
