“I Is for Intifada” at School? JEFA Founders Speak Out

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Tamara Gottlieb and Aaron Kucharczuk, co-founders of JEFA (Jewish Educators and Families Association), for an unfiltered conversation about what Jewish students and families are facing in the Toronto District School Board.From antisemitic bullying to hostile classroom materials like the book P is for Palestine, featuring “I is for Intifada”, they share firsthand accounts of how bad things have gotten and how institutions are failing to protect Jewish children. This is not just about isolated incidents, but a broader cultural shift that’s leaving many Jewish families feeling silenced, unsafe, and abandoned by the very systems meant to support them.We discuss the urgent need for accountability in education, how JEFA is leading the charge, and why staying silent is no longer an option.
