This compelling and thought-provoking documentary on the aftermath of October 7 on college campuses, social media, and on the streets of America. The film highlights how America reached this critical moment, where some view Hamas as freedom fighters instead of terrorists, and how social justice movements have aligned themselves with a violent and reactionary cause. Featuring prominent voices including Debra Messing, Mosab Yosef (son of Hamas’s co-founder), Sheryl Sandberg, US Rep. Ritchie Torres, Kristen Gillibrand, and more, the film paints a picture of the climate on American campuses, the threats to Jewish students, and raises urgent questions about the future of Western democracy. Post-film we will hear from Eyal Yakoby, a former UPenn student featured in the film, and a prominent voice in radicalism and antisemitism in universities.
Tickets: $7/student, $10/adults
Eyal Yakoby, a recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Political Science and Modern Middle East Studies and an incoming student at MIT, is a prominent voice on issues of radicalism and antisemitism in universities. He spoke at a House Congressional leadership press conference in 2023 and testified before the House Judiciary Committee in 2024. Yakoby has appeared on TV networks, including CNN, ABC, and Fox, and has contributed to publications such as The Washington Post and The New York Post. He hopes that America sticks by its founding principle of freedom from religious persecution.
Yakoby has postponed his full-time consulting position to join the Congressional Ways & Means Committee. His focus there is on investigating the tax-exempt status of organizations that may have connections to foreign adversaries and terror activities.
