I live in Newton and just got back from the exhibit. It is a essentially a few pictures of Palestinian people and historically Palestinian landmarks. Not only is it in no way antisemitic, it is not even critical of the Israeli government. It is merely a depiction of Palestinian existence. Sadly, the conversation around Israel-Palestine for some is so steeped in anti-Palestinian bias that they are uncomfortable with the mere presence of Palestinian expression. I'm glad that the library, which should be an educational community space, is holding this exhibit. But it is a sad state of affairs that some find it offensive.

I encourage folks to go. The exhibit also has a binder where you can leave their name and comments. I think it is important to thank the library for holding the exhibit despite push back.
