Deconstructing the BDS Movement's Anti-Semitic Perception

Unless it was dismantled last night after we put this podcast to bed, the pro-Palestinian encampment at McGill University is now entering into its 11th day. It's just one of several across Canada, and one of many more across North America.

So last Tuesday, we headed to Montreal to check out the McGill encampment for ourselves.
