Welcome to our channel, where we spotlight voices making a difference in the Jewish community. In this powerful talk, Harvard Divinity School graduate Shabbos Kestenbaum shares his journey as the sole remaining plaintiff in a landmark civil rights lawsuit against Harvard University over antisemitism on campus.

Shabbos discusses:
• Why he refused to settle when other plaintiffs did
• The troubling rise of antisemitism on elite campuses
• His advice for Jewish high school students considering college
• The importance of Jewish education and youth empowerment🗳️

Shabbos challenges us to reconsider what institutions truly deserve our support and argues that the Jewish community should focus on building stronger Jewish identities rather than fighting for acceptance at universities that have demonstrated hostility toward Jewish students.
This talk was recorded live at AISH CENTER in Boulder, Colorado, on April 23, 2025.
