    Divest Now!

    One of my few media moments of fame came from standing during the anti-apartheid demos at Cal side by side with some technician from KQED,. As a result, the voiceover for numberless teasers for the resulting documentary had me chanting “Hey hey; ho-ho, apartheid has got to go.”

    I share this personal tidbit to vouchsafe my credentials as an anti-apartheid maven (as it were…).

    DIVESTITURE scares Israel shitless. It becomes an immediate zero-sum moral vote for every trustee, governing board, city council, blah blah blah.

    It is time.

    This is what I mean. divestiture is universally litigable, forcing confrontation with the apartheid issues in manifold
