Laureen Lipsky
CEO & Founder
Laureen Lipsky is the CEO & Founder of Taking Back the Narrative, a Zionist education initiative.
What makes her background unique is that she was anti-Israel for 20 years and not just due to the media, but also as a result of numerous Jewish organizations she was part of, that used antisemitic terminology. She has been dedicating her career since 2014, when she became a Zionist to educating both Jews and non-Jews on accurate Jewish history, non-antisemitic terminology, and not erasing Jewish history in the only Jewish homeland.
Zionism education came into sharp focus for Laureen in 2014 when she was watching CNN. She was disgusted with the lies aimed at Israel, as the Jewish homeland was defending itself against Hamas, in the first Hamas war. It was that time period that prompted her to deeply research the facts on Israel, the Middle East in general, and Jewish history overall.
Her Israel and Jewish-oriented op-ed writing has been featured in: The Federalist, American Thinker, Washington Examiner, Algemeiner, Israel Hayom, and JNS. She has also written an exclusive piece, “The semantics of antisemitism” for The Center for Security Policy.
Since 2014, Laureen has dedicated her social media accounts to Israel education. In 2018, Laureen was the runner-up in the Jewish People’s Choice Awards for the ‘Defender of Israel’ award. Taking Back the Narrative is the ultimate culmination in Zionist education, building upon Laureen’s work since 2014.
