Since Oct. 7, Raheel Raza has become even more outspoken against a global rise in antisemitism. Now, the well-known Pakistani-Canadian activist is also speaking publicly about her personal journey to find a kidney.

“When I see what’s happening on our streets and I look at the future of my children and grandchildren, I believe that I have to keep on doing what I’m doing,” Raza said, who is an anti-racism activist, author and interfaith discussion leader.

“And this is an opportunity for me. Yes, I have some restrictions, but I don’t allow them to hold me back. They are a very small drop in the ocean of the work that has to be done," she said.

Those restrictions are her weekly visits to the hospital to receive dialysis. Raza lives with kidney failure. But as Caryn Lieberman reports, an entire community is stepping in to help – the Jewish community.
