White. Blonde. Jew. - by Alyssa Rosenheck (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

They used these words to shame her: White. Blonde. Jew. She turned them into the title of her book--and a movement.

In an age of curated silence, false virtue, and weaponized identity, Alyssa Rosenheck refused to shrink. White. Blonde. Jew. is a brave cultural and political narrative for anyone ready to speak truth, reclaim moral clarity, and lead with values that won't bend.

After being targeted with antisemitic threats, sidelined by literary gatekeepers, and erased by movements claiming to fight for justice, Rosenheck--a purpose-driven creative--refused to bow. She traveled to the Gaza envelope, met with foreign ambassadors and local legislators, and interviewed combat heroes, hostages, and families who didn't allow grief to turn into silence. Through war zones and culture wars, she's remained steady, encouraging readers to turn pain into purpose, judgment into dialogue, and silence into a clear, unwavering voice.

This is more than a book--it's armor for the soul and a roadmap for those who stand their ground.

Readers will uncover:

How antisemitism is being rebranded across media, academia, and activism--and how to push back with truth, historical context, and moral clarity The uncomfortable realities about race, identity, and power, and why many DEI initiatives erase Jewish identity while deepening division How to decode emotional manipulation and spot propaganda, equipping you to think critically, resist performative outrage, and reclaim your voice in the digital age Alyssa's signature P.A.C.E. method: Pause, Analyze, Contemplate, Engage--a practical and powerful framework to replace reactivity with grounded integrity Inspiration for getting involved at a local level and creating positive change in one's immediate community Access to a built-in community of truth-tellers and change-makers through curated book clubs and online spaces designed for mutual support and conversation Chapter-by-chapter discussion prompts and reflection guides to help foster honest dialogue, deepen clarity, and spark connection in your community or book group

White. Blonde. Jew. is not just something you read, it's something you carry. A mirror. A megaphone. A call to remember who you are, even when the world forgets.
