Where You've Seen Him

Signature Topics

  • Jewish Identity & Pride in an Age of Hate

    Audience: Jewish organizations, university communities, advocacy conferences, general audiences concerned about rising antisemitism.

    Antisemitism is rising. Jewish identity is under pressure from without and from within. In this keynote, Yuval draws on his own biography — as an American, an Israeli, and a grandson of Holocaust survivors — to make the case for a Judaism that is proud, unapologetic, and fully present in the world. Audiences leave with a renewed sense of what it means to stand as Jews in this moment, and concrete language for articulating that identity to others.

  • Art for Social Change

    Audience: Artists, creatives, advocacy organizations, cultural institutions, film festivals, student groups.

    Art is not decoration. It is one of the most powerful tools of social and political transformation ever invented. Yuval has used film, documentary, and performance to advance civil rights, combat antisemitism, and amplify marginalized voices — winning over 100 international film festival awards in the process. This talk explores how creatives can weaponize their gifts on behalf of causes that matter, with practical frameworks for turning artistic vision into real-world impact.

  • Storytelling as Advocacy — Using Your Voice to Change the World

    Audience: Activists, communicators, advocacy organizations, nonprofit professionals, students.

    Every great movement has been carried by great stories. In this keynote, Yuval explores the mechanics of persuasive narrative — how to find the story only you can tell, how to shape it for maximum impact, and how to deliver it across media, in person, and in writing. This is not a talk about theory. It is a practical guide to turning lived experience into a force for change, drawn from Yuval's years on the frontlines of journalism, advocacy, and film.

  • LGBTQ Identity, Representation & the Fight Still Ahead

    Audience: LGBTQ organizations, universities, corporate ERGs, civil rights conferences, general audiences.

    LGBTQ rights have come a long way — and the work is far from done. Yuval speaks candidly about the ongoing fight for representation, dignity, and legal protection, weaving together personal experience, political analysis, and cultural commentary. He addresses audiences across the political and religious spectrum, building bridges rather than walls, and leaving people with a clearer sense of what solidarity actually looks like in practice.

  • Zionism & Israel — Reclaiming the Narrative

    Audience: Jewish and pro-Israel organizations, university audiences, policy forums, international conferences.

    Zionism is one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented ideas in public discourse today. Yuval makes the case for Israel's existence and Jewish sovereignty with moral clarity, historical grounding, and the lived authority of someone who holds both American and Israeli citizenship. This talk is designed for audiences who want to engage confidently on Israel — not defensively, but from a place of informed conviction — and for institutions that need to equip their communities to do the same.

  • Identity, Resilience & Self-Empowerment for Marginalized Communities

    LGBT organizations, Jewish communities, multicultural student groups, social justice conferences, corporate inclusion programs.

    What does it mean to carry multiple marginalized identities in a world that often asks you to choose between them? Yuval speaks from the intersection of Jewish, LGBTQ, and activist identity — about the particular strength that comes from navigating that complexity, and about the tools that have helped him show up fully in every room. This is a motivational keynote with genuine substance: personal narrative, practical tools, and a vision for what self-empowerment can accomplish in the world.

Workshops & interactive sessions

Yuval leads interactive workshops in addition to keynotes — a meaningful differentiator that makes him bookable for training programs, organizational retreats, and educational institutions.
