Liza Behrendt, 22 year old member of Young Jewish and Proud, the youth wing of Jewish Voice for Peace, bravely speaks her mind and testifies to her experience during a breakout session called “The Struggle to Secure Israel on Campus” to call attention to the silencing of Palestinians — and young Jews who support them — on U.S. campuses.
Liza stood on stage and unfurled a banner that read, “Settlements Betray Jewish Values” and “Tzedek Tzedek Tirdof,” the Jewish text from Deuteronomy meaning “Justice, Justice, You Shall Pursue.”
