The Fight for Zionism in America with Herbert Block

  • Summary

  • What if you had a direct say in how Israel’s national institutions allocate over a billion dollars a year? What if you could vote—not in an Israeli election, but in one that shapes the Zionist future?

    This week, we sit down with Herbert Block, Executive Director of the American Zionist Movement, to discuss the World Zionist Congress elections—what they are, why they matter, and how American Jews can wield real influence in Israel and the Diaspora.

    We talk about the surge in engagement since October 7th, the evolving relationship between Israeli and American Jewry, and why many Jews hesitate to call themselves Zionists—even when they live, breathe, and act on its ideals.

    Plus: What does a strong Zionist future look like? Is Zionism an unfinished project? And why does the American Zionist Movement insist on keeping its tent big—from the far-right to the far-left, religious to secular, Ashkenazi to Sephardi, Reform to Orthodox?

    The elections are coming up. If you’re a proud Zionist (or just want to understand why this matters), this episode is for you.
