Lizzy Savetsky joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour to talk about the path that took her from social media personality to full-time advocate. Lizzy Savetsky has spent recent years speaking publicly about antisemitism and her support for Israel, and she used the conversation to walk through how that shift happened in her own life.
The conversation moves from her personal account of the backlash she says she has faced, through her take on media coverage of the Israel-Gaza conflict, to her reflections on where the discourse stands today.
About Lizzy Savetsky

She has continued to build that platform through interviews and public speaking, framing her advocacy work as the central focus of her public life today.
