UK university reinstates suspended Palestinian academic after backlash

 Shahd Abusalama

30 Jan 2022; MEMO: Shahd Abusalama is allowed to teach again at Sheffield Hallam University after a week's suspension due to an anonymous 'anti-Semitism' complaint filed against her.

Palestinian lecturer was suspended from teaching by the university over an anti-Israel social media post after it received a complaint against Abusalama.

The university authorities did not specify the group or individual who filed the complaint that led to her suspension, but Abusalama, who is from Gaza, has been vocal about the campaign led by pro-Israel groups to have her expelled.
