Our guest is Darializa Avila Chevalier, who just won the Democratic nomination for Congress in New York’s 13th district. Avila Chevalier has attracted controversy for her views on Israel-Palestine, among other issues. But the interviews with her that I’ve seen haven’t probed those views in depth. I want to better understand her beliefs about October 7, about Zionism, and about what would constitute a just future in Israel-Palestine.
This conversation was co-sponsored by Jewish Currents.
Topics include:
What she saw in the West Bank
Why she went to a rally on October 8
Working with Zionists in the Democratic Party
How she wants Columbia University to change
Becoming Muslim in this anti-Muslim political environment
