Fox News
Shabbos Kestenbaum, an Orthodox Jew who spoke at the Republican National Convention and who graduated from Harvard Divinity School, said he is staying strong in his faith amid antisemitism.
Students in tents on campus were shouting antisemitic slogans like "Globalize the intifada" and "Resistance is justified when people are occupied," he said. After his RNC speech, delegates came up to him to say that parishes and communities in South Dakota and Iowa were praying for the Jewish community.

Kestenbaum opened his speech in Milwaukee by proclaiming, "I am a proud first-generation American. I am a proud Orthodox Jew. And as of five months ago, I am the proud plaintiff suing Harvard University for its failure to combat antisemitism."
