At this point, anyone in the Israel game knows student Shabbos Kestenbaum and professor Shai Davidai. Pay attention a little closer, and you probably know Tessa Veksler and Eli Tsives, too. These pro-Israel campus activists have gotten a tremendous amount of media and social media attention, which helps to carry them and their cause even in the face of the most vile and relentless adversity and abuse.

But what happens when you are a lone soldier, fighting for Israel and the Jewish people without international influencers and hundreds of thousands of supporters cheering you on?

Jane Hoffman, a remarkable young woman who just completed her freshman year at the University of Colorado, Boulder, is a fearless and proud Zionist who stands up and speaks up against any and all anti-Israel and antisemitic behavior that dares to fall within her sphere.

Whether it's confronting the dean of her university or the local barista, Jane is a one-woman IDF defending the Jewish nation she so dearly loves. This kind of moral clarity, conviction, and courage is extremely rare among Gen Z. Welcome to Generation Zionist.

In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Jane Hoffman discuss being a young Israel activist, the challenges and the empowerment, and the importance of standing up for what you know is right.

If you are a yogi or yogini who believes that the anti-Israel mobs and encampments are legitimate resistance, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about what it's like to be a Jewish student in 2025, what it means to be guided by Jewish values, and what it means to stand unapologetically against terror in the name of the Jewish nation.

Jane Hoffman is a student at the University of Colorado, Boulder where she is studying Psychology. At CU, Jane is actively involved in Jewish life and leadership on campus. Being a part of the Jewish community and a Zionist is central to the core of her being. She looks forward to interning at CAMERA this fall where she will get to expand her passion and dedication to Israel advocacy.
