Who is Fighting Antisemitism?

At the 2025 JNS Summit, Elana Heideman delivered a powerful address on the evolving face of antisemitism in the post-October 7 world. Speaking on a panel of experts, she highlighted the psychological toll of global antisemitism, the silence and fear gripping Jewish communities, and the urgent need for personal responsibility and grassroots action. Heideman called for a shift from reactive responses to proactive engagement, urging every individual to become a voice of “pro-Semitism” and Jewish pride in the face of growing hatred.
