Wellington Chapter RSVP:
Born and raised in the crime capital of Israel, May Golan is a patriotic social activist who emerged as the voice and symbol of hope for the people of impoverished South Tel Aviv. Founder and CEO of the Hebrew City NGO, May is fighting for social justice and the basic human rights of the Israeli citizens in South Tel Aviv, and to help retain their Hebrew character in the face of mass illegal immigration. Thank you for hearing about May’s Battleground today!
In 2012 May wrote a much acclaimed weekly blog – “Life According to May” – about her daily life that provided a startling insight into the true fear and dark reality of a young woman’s fight for daily survival in the lawlessness of South Tel Aviv.
In her determined battle for public awareness of the brutal crimes committed by illegal infiltrators in South Tel Aviv, May created one of the most powerful social media networks in both English and Hebrew. May’s successful online campaigning forced the mainstream media to start covering the previously ignored harsh reality.
During the 2014 Operation Protective Edge, her Twitter reached an international audience of over 2M, and one Facebook post led to the arrest of Arab construction workers who were spying for Hamas terrorists! Her Israeli audience of over 150,000 regular monthly viewers is very influential and seen as the heartbeat of average Israeli public opinion of which 60% is in the 18-35 age group.
Still today at 2018, may is a frequent contributor in the media, radio and on television both on the subject of illegal infiltrators and social issues, as well as a political panelist on television. May has also featured on the cover of Haaertz, Globes, Maaariv and others, and been interviewed in English on i24News, the BBC and US Radio Stations. May also writes in English, most recently for Israel National News, Arutz7, and was just elected on of the 50 most influential women in Israel in Maariv.
To celebrate Israel’s 66 years of Independence, Haaretz chose May as one of “66 Israeli Women You Should Know” and Time Out Tel Aviv named her as one of the “Most Influencial Tel Avivians”. Channel 10 chose her as one the most influential Internet figures in Israel in a televised ceremony at the Israel Presidents Office alongside the CEO’s of Facebook, Checkpoint and other public figures.
May leads her Hebrew City NGO in fighting local and national Government, and the Supreme Court to take responsibility for the conditions forced upon the people of South Tel Aviv by the effects of their policies of mass illegal immigration.
