SAA has appealed to key members of Congress to continue working to “shed light on the secret contract between the Smithsonian Institution and Showtime to create a joint venture with some exclusive rights over use of the Smithsonian archives and staff.” Read the letter here.

Statement Deplores Destruction of Palestinian Cultural Property

The SAA Council has endorsed a July 21 statement by the International Committee of the Blue Shield that deplores the destruction of cultural property in the Middle East. The Council also voted to forward the ICBS statement to the Israeli Embassy in the US and to the Palestinian Authority, with a request that they investigate the veracity of articles indicating the destruction of the Nablus archives.
