Toronto, ON - Surveilled & Silenced is a unique and original initiative that documents anti-Palestinian racism and the experiences of faculty members, students, and staff at York University after October 7 2023, including those who stand in solidarity with Palestine and Palestinians. The report argues that racism is shaped by academic repression and reprisals against those challenging anti-Palestinian racism (APR) and those that stand for Palestine solidarity; and that repression and reprisal are due to, and gaining strength from, the failure of the administration to take effective action when it comes to anti-Palestinian racism.

As the first of its kind, this report will have implications for all Canadian universities. It documents the pervasiveness of anti-Palestinian racism and its profound impacts on students, staff and faculty. It documents the reasons this form of racism fails to get effectively addressed. And, it suggests that addressing anti-Palestinian racism requires a serious interrogation of the relationship that Canada and its universities have with Israel.
