Matan Gendelman: Surviving Kfar Aza - Fearless Interventions Ep. 24
Summary:
In this episode of "Fearless Interventions," host Max Alperstein interviews Matan Gendelman, who recounts her terrifying experience during the October 7, 2023, attack on Kfar Aza, a kibbutz near the Gaza Strip. Matan describes the fear and chaos as she hid in her family's safe room, unsure of her children’s safety who were elsewhere in the kibbutz. Matan's story includes her background as an Israeli-American, her career as a therapist and singer, and the impact of the attack on her life and work. Despite the tragedy delaying her new album, she remains dedicated to her music and work as a speech therapist. She details the survival tactics used during the attack, the distress of receiving messages from her sister in danger, and the relief of their eventual rescue by soldiers. Matan's message to listeners emphasizes the strength of community and support among Israeli people, encouraging everyone to continue bringing light and helping one another.
