Can one viral video do more to fight antisemitism than an entire Jewish organization?
Recorded at the Jewish American Summit in Los Angeles, Jonah sits down with Zach Sage Fox, the creator and producer of Street Smart, and founder of the nonprofit Think Again, to discuss his unconventional approach to fighting anti-Israel misinformation and extremism.
Zach explains how Street Smart, his viral man-on-the-street content satirical platform, and Think Again, his new education-focused nonprofit, use Hollywood-level production, comedy, and data-driven storytelling to change minds. He takes us behind the scenes of his Times Square child-bride social experiment, and how he put Holocaust survivors face-to-face with Gen Z Holocaust deniers. Zach makes the case for investing millions in digital education to beat anti-Zionists at their own game. Plus, Zach shares his concerns about Zohran Mamdani, the future of New York City, and why he believes the battle for Western values and the Jewish community's future will be won on social media.
