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🗳️
    • Support Jewish student leaders by voting in the World Zionist Congress elections (only happens once every 5 years!): http://aish.com/vote/RabbiMenachemLehrfield

    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.

  • From Military Missions to Mitzvot: A Couple’s Journey to Judaism
    Feb 26 2025
    Welcome to Zero Percent, the podcast that explores the outsized impact of the Jewish people! 🌟

    Join us as Tehilla and Mikhail, a young couple who married as teenagers, share their remarkable journey from Christian backgrounds to Orthodox Judaism. Their transformation began during Mikhail's military deployment to Afghanistan when Tehilla started questioning the origins of Christian holidays. Hear how they navigated religious transitions while moving between Germany, South Carolina, and Florida, gradually finding their authentic spiritual path from messianic communities to full Jewish conversion.

    Despite resistance from family members who feared they were condemning themselves by abandoning their Christian beliefs, the couple remained steadfast in their search for spiritual authenticity. Their story reveals how sometimes our understanding of faith evolves across continents and life experiences, and how a powerful moment of pure connection to God in a synagogue can change everything. This moving conversation highlights the beauty of choosing a path focused on building a direct relationship with Hashem, without intermediaries, even when it means leaving familiar traditions behind.
