The world won't sympathize with Jews, even in our darkest hour - opinion

2 months ago | jpost.com | Sophia Tupolev-Luz

In an American political climate where meritocracy is the word du jour, it’s not clear if any minority label – for any group – will be an asset or a liability.
Finding comfort in shawarma amid chaos in Tel Aviv - opinion

Oct 6, 2024 | jpost.com | Sophia Tupolev-Luz

The “all clear” sounds, and I wait a few minutes before getting up from the blue plastic crate that I’m sitting on. I realize I’m surrounded by trash in the makeshift bomb shelter of a one-star hotel near the Tel Aviv beach, the closest thing to where I happened to be when the shooting started. I need to get to my toddlers, who are with their father, who says there’s no food in his fridge, and obviously, there are no cabs. Deep breath. It’s a 25-minute walk inland.
A missile strike, a terror attack, and a falafel guy who is ready to serve

TEL AVIV - The "all clear" sounds around 8:30 p.m., and I wait a few minutes before getting up from the blue plastic crate that I'm sitting on. I realize I'm surrounded by trash in the makeshift bomb shelter of a one-star hotel near the Tel Aviv beach - the closest possibility of safety to where I happened to be when the shooting started. I need to get to my toddlers, who are with their father, who says there's no food in his fridge. Obviously, there are no cabs. Deep breath.

Sep 22, 2024 | jpost.com | Sophia Tupolev-Luz

Universities adopting neutrality on Israel's war with Hamas are capitulating to terror and radicals, failing to stand against antisemitism and crimes against humanity.
I got a nerve block for PTSD, here's what happened - opinion

Aug 28, 2024 | jpost.com | Sophia Tupolev-Luz

With Israel potentially facing $50 billion in economic costs from PTSD over the next five years, this innovative approach could be a crucial step toward healing. File this one under things that go bump in the night: I went through something during the last year. I don’t want to talk about “it” right now.
Parental advisory, for explicit reality tonight in Israel

“Our shoes are by the door. If I wake you and your sister, you will put them on and walk to the shelter together with me. You won’t be afraid. And we have snacks.”On Sunday, August 4, 2024 at bedtime, I instruct my children. They are 6 and 4 — so tiny. They shouldn’t be hearing me say this. I say it anyway. I hope they can’t smell fear. On Monday, August 5th, I buy a stroller to make it easier if we have to go. I put my “go bag” inside.
High Court Petition: Regulate Banking for Olim

Jun 25, 2024 | blogs.timesofisrael.com | Sophia Tupolev-Luz

Wars. Political persecution. Pogroms. Antisemitic attacks on the Diaspora. In 2024, immigration to Israel is at a 25-year high and the need for economic integration has never been greater. Now, our data-based High Court petition asks, why are local banks standing in the way, and why is the regulator standing idly by?
