S4 Ep 4: No Room for Hate: Inside Operation Golda with Shoshana Eisner

Today marks 602 days since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, taking hostages. In this episode I’m joined by Shoshana Eisner, the powerhouse behind Operation Golda - a grassroots mission launched from her kitchen just days after October 7. What began with a WhatsApp callout for empty suitcases turned into a full-scale relief effort that has since delivered over 26,000 kilos of trauma supplies to Israel and mobilised hundreds of volunteers across Australia. Shoshana opens up about what it means to channel fear into action, and how her Jewish identity became the driving force behind the work. We discuss Australian values and how Australians revealed at the recent federal election that they hate hate and value multiculturalism and care for others in our country.
