The UN, Society and Antisemitism | Ep. 706: Itay Ken-Tor, Preserving October 7 Testimony | HMTC
DESCRIPTION
Two days after the October 7, 2023 attacks, filmmaker Itay Ken-Tor began helping survivors preserve their firsthand accounts. The result is Edut 710, an archive containing more than 2,100 filmed testimonies created with trauma-informed listening, ethical safeguards, and future generations in mind.
On The UN, Society and Antisemitism, host Dr. Susanne Seperson speaks with Itay about the documentary work that prepared him for this mission, including productions for Yad Vashem and A Film Unfinished, an examination of manipulated Nazi footage from the Warsaw Ghetto.
They explore how visual media constructs narratives, why truth requires multiple perspectives and corroborating sources, and how artificial intelligence makes media literacy increasingly urgent.
Itay also explains Edut 710’s searchable digital archive and its commitment to making full testimony accessible. His closing message is both practical and deeply human: listen carefully, question sources, seek different perspectives, and preserve authentic voices before they are lost.
