A delegation of nearly 30 faculty members and students from UCLA recently traveled to Israel following the October 7th massacre and the subsequent war with Hamas.
Throughout the trip, the delegation heard personal accounts from victims and survivors of the attacks. These stories, filled with heartache and resilience, left a profound impact on the group.
The participants were determined to use their experiences to challenge harmful narratives back home, combat antisemitism on campus, and stand up for Israel in a time of crisis.
