Episode 31 – Part 2: Zach Einstein Astrof on Fighting Antisemitism on Campus
Host: Alan Mindel
Guest: Zach Einstein Astrof
Description:
In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Alan Mindel sits down again with student activist Zach Einstein Astrof to explore the rising tide of antisemitism across college campuses in America. Zach shares his deeply personal motivation rooted in his family's Holocaust history, his experiences confronting hate speech and misinformation at the University of Maryland, and the pivotal conversations he's had—both failed and successful—with peers on opposing sides of the Israel-Palestine debate.
Zach discusses the formation of TerPAC, his advocacy efforts in the Maryland state legislature, and the critical importance of education, civil discourse, and legislative action. Together, Alan and Zach unpack key concepts like Zionism, misinformation in media, and the global Jewish experience—offering clarity, perspective, and a call to action for students, educators, and policymakers alike.
This is a vital episode about truth, resilience, and the role young voices can play in shaping a more informed and just society.
