ABOUT LIORA REZ Liora Rez is the Founder and Executive Director of STOPANTISEMITISM. A refugee from the former Soviet Union where antisemitism was rampant, Rez was all too familiar with its dangers. Sadly, in the United States, she encountered disturbingly similar rhetoric and behaviors. In 2018, in response to an alarming rise of antisemitic incidents, Rez founded STOPANTISEMITISM to hold antisemites accountable for their actions. STOPANTISEMITISM takes the fight to the bad actors—exposing them online, on college campuses, in corporations, in government, and anywhere else they are empowered. Rez has engineered StopAntisemitism’s modern approach to combatting antisemitism. Using her expertise in digital marketing, Rez has harnessed the power of social media to create a vast network of activists who work together to identify and create consequences for those who perpetuate antisemitic tropes, engage in inciteful antisemitic rhetoric, and commit antisemitic acts. In just a few years, STOPANTISEMITISM’s reach has expanded to millions of people, and its activism has resulted in the expulsion of antisemitic students, the firing of antisemitic employees, the public embarrassment of antisemitic political activists, and more. Despite facing harassment and threats for her work fighting antisemitism, Rez remains relentless in her quest to hold perpetrators accountable. Rez has written extensively on the topic of antisemitism. Her articles have been published in prominent outlets including CNN and The Jerusalem Post. Rez has also become a go-to source for news outlets and has been quoted in the Los Angeles Times, the New York Post, The Hill, and Newsweek and was recently featured as an expert in a Dr. Phil episode on antisemitism. In recognition of her work, Rez has made the “The Top 100 People Positively Influencing Jewish Life” by The Algemeiner every year since founding STOPANTISEMITISM.
