Tom Roeper: Report from Israel
Tom Roeper was recently in Israel. He filed the following report on the journey:
I gave one of the primary talks in a long-planned and broadly advertised conference in Israel at the Hebrew University on Bilingualism and SLI and gave a talk on "Multiple Grammars Perspective and How Bilingualism can benefit children with SLI". Former UMass visiting scholars Petra Schulz and Jürgen Meisel were there too.
As an alternative to the academic boycott of Israel, promoted in England, recently advanced in the US, and supported by the late Tanya Reinhart, I chose to participate in a protest against the recent war and occupation of Gaza at the Wall in an isolated Arab town, Beilin. A weekly protest has taken place over the last two years. Two students were hit with bullets and another killed in the last few weeks. Aviya Hacohen, a visitor here briefly last year, came as well. The protest group of a couple of hundred was organized and led by the villagers with perhaps 30 Israelis and foreigners participating. No one was hurt but a good deal of teargas was shot, with little provocation that anyone could see. It was a sobering experience, but I was very glad to have participated and registered my opposition.
