Peter Beinart Interviews Mahmood Mamdani
Join us virtually for a members-only event on Friday, December 12th at 12 pm ET:
This Friday, Jewish Currents is pleased to co-host a virtual conversation between editor-at-large Peter Beinart and Mahmood Mamdani, the Herbert Lehman professor of government at Columbia University. The two will discuss Mamdani’s new memoir about his family’s experience in Uganda; his research on the similarities—and differences—between settler-colonialism in South Africa, Israel/Palestine, and the United States; and the values he taught his son Zohran, the mayor-elect of New York City.
