Black Agenda Radio · Steven Salaita's An Honest Living: A Memoir of Peculiar Itineraries

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. The book is described as “An exiled professor’s journey from inside and beyond academe.” He joins us from Cairo.
