Anatomy of Racial Oppression

This chapter explores the origins of racial oppression in settler colonialism and the Protestant ascendancy in Ireland, drawing parallels to the current situation in Palestine. It discusses the concept of de-classing through a legal scorched earth policy, labor control based on Jewish membership, and laws that criminalize political activity sympathetic to the Palestinian people. The chapter also examines the impact of racial oppression on the Israeli working class and the myth of non-European Jews being at the periphery of Zionism.
