Tell Harvard to Stop Censoring Criticism of Israel

Outcry is growing over Harvard's rescinding a human rights fellowship offer to one of the world's leading human rights experts because of his criticism of Israel's human rights record.

The Carr Center for Human Rights Policy, a division of the Kennedy School, offered a senior fellowship to Kenneth Roth, long-time director of the prestigious Human Rights Watch, and Roth accepted.

Then the Dean of the Kennedy School vetoed the fellowship because, he claimed, Roth and HRW had “an anti-Israel bias.”
