Several members of the American Studies Association (ASA) announced on Wednesday that they would be suing the association for its boycott of Israel.

In 2013, the ASA promoted an academic boycott of Israel, saying it was “in solidarity with scholars and students deprived of their academic freedom, and it aspires to enlarge that freedom for all, including Palestinians.”
