San Francisco State University’s Department of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diasporas attempted to host a webinar on September 23rd with Palestinian terrorist Leila Khaled. Khaled, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which is classified as a terrorist organization in the United States, European Union, Canada, and Israel, participated in the hijacking of two planes in 1969 and 1970.

The webinar, titled “Whose Narratives? Gender, Justice, & Resistance: A Conversation with Leila Khaled,” was shut down by Zoom, citing “the speaker’s reported affiliation or membership in a US designated foreign terrorist organization” in a statement to The Lawfare Project.
