Western Washington University’s Fairhaven College of Interdisciplinary Studies’ World Issues Forum will host Palestinian human rights activist Omar Barghouti from noon-1:20 p.m. in the Fairhaven College Auditorium, where he will present “Israel, South Africa and the Jim Crow South: Resisting Apartheid.”

The presentation will cover the origins, motives, successes and inspirations behind the nonviolent global, Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) human rights movement and the underpinning ethical principles that connect it to the struggle against apartheid-era South Africa and the Civil Rights movement in the United States.
