Hear from our advocates

“I came into this class with a hard-line stance about Israel and the conflict. I have learned the value of acknowledging complexity and understanding other perspectives. I realized that this is the only way you can have a real conversation and connect with someone else.”

Student, Riverdale Country School
“Just a quick and heartfelt note of thanks… It was an amazing day for our team. Mohammed and Yossi's courageous conversation, your excellent facilitation, the whole thing in fact -- staff were blown away.”

Educator, Hebrew Public
“In my opinion, you pretty much did the ‘impossible.’ It is NOT easy to pack so much intensive information into a mere 75-minute session AND do it in a way where it makes sense and everybody can follow it . . . but you did!”

Educator,
Sir Robert Borden High School
“I really appreciate your willingness to engage in open and substantive conversation about the history of Zionism and Israel, and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to meet such a kind and empathetic human being today. You are truly an inspiration [and made] the stories of Zionism and Israel much more approachable for me.”

Student, Horace Mann School
