Generations of Courage – The Soviety Jewry Movement & the Campus Frontline

Join us for a critical conversation that bridges the history of the Soviet Jewry movement with the urgent reality of modern campus activism. Author Izabella Tabarovsky (How to be a Refusenik) joins former Refusenik and NCSEJ leader Alexander “Sasha” Smukler and student activist Eyal Yakoby to explore the enduring power of Jewish resilience.

Together, they will trace the lineage of anti-Zionist rhetoric from the Soviet era to today’s universities, offering a “field manual” for identity preservation. From the secret Hebrew classes of Moscow to the student unions of UPenn, discover how finding your “comrades in arms” remains the ultimate act of resistance. This is not just a history lesson; it is a strategy session for the next generation.
