            Abstract

            A comparative approach is necessary when examining the role of Palestinian scholars and activists in defense of their cause. A look at the role of Native American scholars and activists reveals some similarities. Both groups worked hard to prevent the erasure of their identity by the settler colonial invaders. Another common theme is the emphasis on a politics of hope. Professor Aruri was a man of the left which has been in retreat throughout the Arab World. A renewed critique is necessary before the left can be resurrected. This offers the only democratic hope for the region.
