“I cannot thank CAMERA’s staff and fellows enough for all the valuable lessons I’ve learned these past two years. I have grown as a writer, managed to get articles published in prestigious outlets such as The Jerusalem Post, The Algemeiner and JNS, and always strived to fight against anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. I will always defend Israel against the unfair criticism it receives, and thankfully CAMERA has equipped me to do this in a well thought out and researched manner.”

—Ben Stone, 2020-2021 CAMERA Fellow at Duke University

“Being a CAMERA on Campus Fellow was a true pleasure and a perfect way to close out my college career. From the amazing International CAMERA Conference to the incredible community they foster, to their inspiring staff, I was able to thrive as an activist at my university. Not only was CAMERA able to facilitate my hosting an incredible event with a world-renown international law scholar, but they assisted me in writing and publishing three articles regarding anti-Israel rhetoric on my campus. CAMERA made me a better advocate for the Jewish state by giving me the tools to stand up to, and expose misinformation and bias in the classroom.”

—Harrison Kerdman, 2020-2021 CAMERA Fellow at the University of California, Santa Barbara

“My experience with CAMERA On Campus was crucial to my development as a writer, Zionist, team member, and person. I was never without support from staff and peers, and more importantly, was never afraid to reach out with any questions pertaining to my fellowship. I learned more about my own Jewish history and Zionism than I would have ever been able to learn elsewhere, enabling me to feel more passionate about the cause and my own Nation. The structure of the Fellowship itself lead me to make connections with fascinating people, form friendships, and learn skills I can use with every next opportunity.”

“My second year of the CAMERA fellowship may now be officially complete, but I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you for everything, Douglas. You were always there when I needed to think out my ideas, and you always encouraged me to do my best and improve my writing. All of your edits and comments really helped me think through the op-eds and what it means to write about the facts to stop the spread of misinformation. I feel like I am more equipped now than I ever was to stand up for myself, my religion, my culture, and the people around me. This fellowship also really helped me continue toward my goal of being an investigative journalist. I know how to layout an article and what to include and not to. Thank you for all the help!”
