    Michael Malice: Is Anarchy the Solution?

    Shabbos Kestenbaum: Why I Sued Harvard

    Shabbos Kestenbaum grew up a proud Jew and a proud American—never seeing a conflict between the two. A former progressive and social justice advocate, he entered Harvard Divinity School expecting open-mindedness. Instead, he found hostility toward Jews, radical leftist ideology, and institutional silence in the face of rising antisemitism. After October 7, he was harassed, threatened, and ignored—simply for being Jewish. Shabbos filed a civil rights lawsuit against Harvard and began rethinking everything he’d been taught about politics, identity, and what it truly means to stand for justice.
