Alice Walker is best known for writing The Color Purple, a book on the African-American experience that spawned an award-winning film starring Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg. Walker is also well known as a fierce critic of Israel, and in her new book, The Cushion in the Road, Walker is accused of sinking "to to new lows" of anti-Semitism.
The Cushion in the Road features a section dubbed "On Palestine," which takes up a fourth of the overall book's pages.
