JNS CEO and Jerusalem bureau chief Alex Traiman interviews Masha Merkulova, founder and executive director of Club Z, a national organization that educates unaffiliated American Jewish teens about Zionism and the State of Israel. They discuss how parents and leaders have failed Jewish youth by not giving them a proper foundation so they can face anti-Israel environments with facts and information. According to Merkulova, the mission of Club Z has become all the more important after Oct. 7 in the wake of rising antisemitism.
