Stars of David with Elon Gold

Elon Gold and Eli Leonard sit down with Yonit Levi, long-time lead news anchor of Israel’s Channel 12, and CNN anchor Bianna Golodryga to talk about their new book Don’t Feed the Lion. After October 7, both women faced the same urgent question from their kids — Why does antisemitism still exist? When they couldn't resources to help explain it, they teamed up to write a story-driven book for tweens and teens about identity, hate, and standing up with compassion and clarity. What follows is a funny, sharp, and deeply personal conversation about parenting, public life, rising antisemitism, and the responsibility of using your voice — especially now.
