The Rush with Reshmi Nair interviews Michael Lynk about Israeli apartheid

On March 30, “The Rush with Reshmi Nair” featured an interview about Israeli apartheid with Michael Lynk, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law, Western University. As a UN Special Rapporteur last year, Lynk delivered a report to the United Nations Human Rights Council coming to similar conclusions as Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, B’Tselem, and others — that Israel is an apartheid state. In a wide-ranging and balanced interview, Nair gives Lynk the opportunity to express alarm over Canada’s failure to adopt the language of these realities.
