Steven Salaita is the author of a new book published by Fordham University Press, "An Honest Living: A Memoir of Peculiar Itineraries". In 2014, Steven Salaita was fired from a tenured position in American Indian Studies at the University of Illinois for his unwavering stance on Palestinian human rights.
