Indiana University Cancels Exhibition by Prominent Palestinian Artist Samia Halaby
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the latest crackdown by U.S. colleges on Palestinian voices, Indiana
University canceled the first U.S. retrospective of renowned artist
Samia Halaby. Halaby, who is an Indiana University alum, was informed
that her social media posts on the Israeli assault, expressing
solidarity with Gazans under attack, was the reason for the
cancellation. The exhibition had been in the works for over three years.
