In this episode, I speak with THE Shabbos Kestenbaum, an American-Jewish graduate of Harvard Divinity School who has become a leading voice confronting antisemitism on university campuses since October 7.
Shabbos rose to national prominence as the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit against Harvard University, alleging the school failed to protect Jewish and Israeli students following the Hamas attacks. Since then, he has testified before the US Congress and the Israeli Knesset, appeared across major media outlets, and debated some of the most vocal critics of Israel and the Jewish community.
In this conversation, we discuss the shock of encountering open antisemitism on campus and what Jewish students are really facing today. He shares why he chose to hold institutions accountable, even at personal cost.
He also talks about stepping into the public spotlight, debating on platforms like Piers Morgan Uncensored, and what gives him hope for the future of Jewish life in the Diaspora.
And we find out who Shabbos really wants to debate!!!
