Mazal Bisawer is a graduate of the program for political speakers at IDEA-Center For Liberal Democracy in Israel.  She completed her studies at Tel Aviv University with a specialty in psychology and classical studies.  Mazal has been a prominent leader of the student protests at TAU in 2015 and since then, she has been a frequent guest on numerous national and international media panels and programs.

As an activist, she seeks to challenge the status-quo and raise awareness about the unique life experience of Ethiopian Israelis – as black and Jewish.  She directly tackles the hard issues around racism within the Israeli context.
