As the Jewish world processes the October 7 massacre and the ensuing worldwide wave of antisemitism, we seek to understand what we have witnessed and to assess what it all means for us as Jews. We want to be aware of the risks and challenges around us and we also want to affirm our identity as Jews - members of an ancient faith and an ancient people whose homeland is the land of Israel.
This podcast features conversations on Israel and Jewish identity, hosted by Cantor Eyal Bitton of Congregation Neveh Shalom of Portland, Oregon.
To confront the challenges, obstacles, risks, and dangers in this changing world we must first assert that we are PROUDLY JEWISH.

In this episode, Eyal Bitton speaks with Shabbos Kestenbaum, who is suing Harvard for allowing and perpetuating antisemitism on campus.

Shabbos shares his unexpected journey from being a student to testifying before Congress and speaking at the Republican National Convention. The conversation delves into the challenges Jewish students encounter on campus, the backlash from peers, and the painful silence—or worse, hostility—from former allies. Shabbos reflects on how the tragic events of October 7th reshaped his understanding of Israel's existential reality and the responsibility he now feels to speak out.
