Live Events and Eye On Zion Video
In 2010, Yishai Fleisher began to conduct regular speaking tours to expand the communications capacity of the Kumah organization. Fleisher also directs and appears as the on-camera face of Eye On Zion Videos with regular appearances from Malkah Fleisher. Eye On Zion video and film content is located on the EyeOnZionTV youtube channel and also on the ShalomTV on-demand cable network (available in 40 million North American homes) and on the new ShalomTV Live channel. Yishai Fleisher's live speaking events include extensive group discussion. The live event objective is to increase understanding about Israel and combat delegitimization. In the summer of 2010, Yishai spoke at 40 venues across 11 U.S. states including numerous college campuses. In the winter of 2011, Fleisher spoke, among other places, at the Canadian Parliament, the Texas State Capital, Baylor Medical School, and University of Chicago Law School. In the winter of 2012, Yishai was the first speaker to give lectures in Hebrew, English and Russian during one set of appearances at Toronto's Beth Avraham Yosef Synagogue. 2012 winter appearances also included the Friday evening dinner talk for the student organized Florida Loves Israel Conference and a special Tu B'Shvat Seder for Satmar Chassidim in Williamsburg at their unique shteible focused on positive connection to Israel. Online selected recordings of live events outside of Israel as well as the public speeches and Torah lectures Yishai Fleisher gives in Israel can be found on Fleisher's website.
In addition to his international speaking tours, Fleisher regularly gives public speeches in Israel, and speaks to students for various organizations (Bnei Akiva, Young Judaea, The David Project, Emunah V' Omanut, and others). He addressed conferences including as a panelist at the 2008 Jerusalem Conference, speaker at the first World Conference of the Noahide Nations, moderator of a panel at the first Nefesh B'Nefesh Blogger Convention, giving the keynote speech at the 2007 Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership) dinner in NY, and speaking along with Knesset Members at the Havat Gilad political forum.

Famous quotes containing the words live, events, eye and/or video:
“Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
“One thing that makes art different from life is that in art things have a shape ... it allows us to fix our emotions on events at the moment they occur, it permits a union of heart and mind and tongue and tear.”
—Marilyn French (b. 1929)
“A good leg will fall, a straight back will stoop, a black beard will turn white, a fair face will wither, a full eye will wax hollow, but a good heart, Kate, is the sun and the moon—or rather the sun and not the moon, for it shines bright and never changes, but keeps his course truly.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
