  • Nanci Pittelkow:

    It is not uncommon for underemployed or precarious urban workers to have to choose between paying the rent or buying food for their families. In recent years, this reality has been intensified in the big cities. The Movement of Homeless Workers (MTST) offers an alternative to the peripheral population, through struggle. The case of the occupation Vila Nova Palestina, held in 2013 in the far south of the capital of São Paulo, summarizes the situation of a refugee population within the city itself.


    Munir Nuseibah:

    This lecture will examine the methods used by Israel to ethnically cleanse Palestinians through using a series of laws and regulations that force Palestinians to live away from their homes, or to live under continuous persecution. Examples of these measures are linked to residency status and urban planning. In addition, measures of collective punishment also force Palestinians out of their homes and communities.
