 In last week’s issue of the Record, there was yet another set of articles written about the Israel-Palestine conflict, focusing on the divisive response we have seen to it here at Williams. One student wrote that he viewed the posting of bloody newspapers throughout Paresky Center — in part to condemn an opinion piece by Jonah Garnick ’23 from the previous week — as an intimidation tactic. Others decried the Record for publishing Garnick’s opinion piece, accusing the Record of putting out-of-date journalistic ethics like free speech and even-handedness over its responsibility to combat asymmetries of power.
 
 As someone who believes that Israel is grossly violating the human rights of Palestinians and has been for many decades, who opposes the United States’s funding of the Israeli military, and who supports pro-Palestine movements like Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions, I am very concerned by the intolerant arguments which I have seen from the anonymous group Students Against Genocide (SAG) in its recent letter to the Record.

 This is, to use a polite term, hogwash. The claim that the Record’s choice to publish Garnick’s opinion makes vulnerable members of the Williams community feel unheard misses the fact that, actually, no one can be made unheard by the publishing of an opinion piece. It is Garnick who will be unheard if he is censored. When claiming that the opinion makes people feel unsafe and unwelcome, SAG is tragedizing its members’ personal anger at someone else’s opinion. It is important to point out that Garnick did not say or imply that anyone is unwelcome, or that he wanted members of the Williams community to be harmed.
 
 I am very alarmed by SAG’s call for our newspaper to silence community members’ voices, and I hope that we can continue to share our genuine thoughts and feelings freely in the pages of the Record.
