Hearing From Our Future - December 6th, Hour 2

Today three students will join us, Ezra Troy who is a senior at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in economics. He has been the lay leader of the orthodox Jewish prayer services at Penn since 2021.  Talia Khan is an MIT graduate student in Mechanical Engineering (sustainable material design) who completed a double major in Music and Materials Science & Engineering at MIT in 2020. She is the president of the MIT Israel Alliance, an organization at the forefront of the battle against antisemitism on campus. A staunch supporter of Israel, Talia brings a diverse perspective on current events, as the daughter of an Ashkenazi Jewish mother and Afghan Muslim father. Talia’s letter will be shared as testimony tomorrow in the hearing of MIT President Sally Kornbluth in Congress, addressing rampant antisemitism on campus. Plus, Lior Alon, Israeli post-doc student at MIT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
