Paris Assault and Its Impact
On November 29, 2025, Noa Tishby was attacked by pro-Hamas marchers during a demonstration in Paris, as reported by The Jerusalem Post. This violent encounter, just weeks ago, has reignited discussions on rising antisemitism in Europe and her personal risks as a vocal advocate.
The assault underscores the dangers faced by pro-Israel figures amid heightened global tensions post-October 7, 2023. Tishby's social media, with millions of followers, amplified the incident, drawing condemnation and support from international communities. It highlights the real-world consequences of her activism in contested public spaces.
Following the event, Tishby continues her campus tour, speaking at U.S. universities since March 2025 to counter misinformation and encourage truth-seeking among students.
From Entertainment to Advocacy
Tishby's entertainment career spans Israeli stardom to Hollywood success. She starred in U.S. shows like Star Trek: Enterprise, Nip/Tuck, and The Affair, while producing landmark projects that introduced Israeli formats to American audiences.
Her pivot to activism began with Act for Israel and Reality Israel leadership trips. Speaking at the UN in 2016 and 2018, she championed Israel's narrative. In 2024, she received an honorary doctorate from Reichman University for her contributions.
Today, as a Milken Institute Global Conference 2025 speaker, Tishby leverages her platform to reach millions daily across social and legacy media.
Books and Ongoing Mission
Tishby's books demystify Israel and address antisemitism head-on. Israel: A Simple Guide offers historical context with a Zionist perspective, while her 2024 collaboration with Emmanuel Acho tackles Jewish-Black dialogues on prejudice.
Her work with organizations like the Black-Jewish Entertainment Alliance and Eighteen institute fosters Jewish pride and combats hate. Despite criticisms from pro-Palestinian groups, her influence persists in shaping public discourse.
The Paris incident amplifies her call for awareness, positioning her as a key figure in 2025's conversations on global antisemitism and Israel's defense.
