Show Notes

Sydney University academics Professor John Keane and Dr Nick Riemer have been taken to the Australian Federal Court, as their own colleagues lodged an antisemitism complaint against them. The reason: Being outspoken against the state of Israel’s Genocide in Gaza.

"Opinions expressed in this conversation are personal and do NOT reflect the opinions or policy of the University of Sydney."

John Keane is a Professor of Politics at the University of Sydney. His latest book is ‘Thinking About Democracy in Turbulent Times’: Sorbonne Lectures (2025). His ‘Open Letter on Israel, Palestine, Genocide and Toleration’ helped trigger the lawfare case against him and Nick Riemer.

Dr Nick Reimer is a Linguistics academic at the University of Sydney and a long-time participant in the Palestine solidarity movement in Australia. He is the author of ‘Boycott Theory and the Struggle for Palestine’ (2023), on the academic boycott of Israel.
