In the seventeen years since\, Iraqis have lived through military occupation\, terrorism\, sectarian violence\, and massive corruption. But they have pushed back and protested against a corrupt political system that has degraded their lives. Their anger exploded in the October Uprising of 2019\, which called for an end to seventeen years of corruption. Iraqi youth are demanding a new\, non-sectarian\, sovereign Iraq. The speakers will discuss these recent developments and their genealogy and show and reflect on clips from the documentary they co-directed. \n \nThis event is part of the Legitimacy and Citizenship in the Arab World which is is funded by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. \nThe event is co-organised with the Arab Studies Institute. \n \n \n \n \n Speakers\n \n \n \n \n \n Dr Sinan Antoon\n Speaker \n Dr Sinan Antoon Antoon is associate professor at New York University’s Gallatin School.
