Abstract

In this article, I investigate three public transit-centered Palestinian political actions in the West Bank and argue that the activists’ framing choices facilitate particular forms of global solidarity. The bus-centered political actions I examine are the Palestinian Freedom Rides of 2011, the Freedom Bus of 2014, and the bus sabotage of 2013. I demonstrate that the activists and participants in each of these cases dexterously move among a collection of terminological frames, invoking racial segregation, racism, and apartheid alongside occupation and colonialism. This rhetorical movement parallels the physical movement that the bus enables and represents. In turn, both forms of movement carry Palestinian political messages beyond the Israeli enclosures in order to connect with diverse solidarity audiences and educate them about Palestinian experiences of im/mobilization.

乘坐公共汽车超越围墙:公共交通抗议，框架流动性，以及殖民占领的许多方面

在这篇文章中，我调查了巴勒斯坦在约旦河西岸以公共交通为中心的三次政治行动，并认为活动人士的框架选择促进了特定形式的全球团结。我调查的以巴士为中心的政治行动是2011年的巴勒斯坦自由之旅、2014年的自由巴士和2013年的巴士破坏事件。我证明，在每一个案例中，活动家和参与者都巧妙地在一系列术语框架中移动，援引种族隔离、种族主义和种族隔离以及占领和殖民主义。这一修辞运动与公交车所引发和代表的物理运动相似。反过来，这两种形式的运动都将巴勒斯坦的政治信息带到了以色列围栏之外，以便与不同的团结受众建立联系，并教育他们巴勒斯坦的动员经验。

期刊介绍： Critique of Anthropology is dedicated to the development of anthropology as a discipline that subjects social reality to critical analysis. It publishes academic articles and other materials which contribute to an understanding of the determinants of the human condition, structures of social power, and the construction of ideologies in both contemporary and past human societies from a cross-cultural and socially critical standpoint. Non-sectarian, and embracing a diversity of theoretical and political viewpoints, COA is also committed to the principle that anthropologists cannot and should not seek to avoid taking positions on political and social questions.
