Kestenbaum was born on December 19, 1998,[1] in Teaneck, New Jersey, to Daniel and Hadassah Kestenbaum,[2] British immigrants.[3] He is one of seven siblings[4] and was named Shabbos because he was born on the Jewish Sabbath.[5] His family later moved to the Riverdale section of the Bronx, New York,[6] where he attended SAR Academy, a local Modern Orthodox Jewish day school, and then SAR High School.[7][8] He also engaged in many educational programs while in high school with the Tikvah Fund.[9] During his youth, he expressed opposition to the Iraq War in a school journal.[10] He then studied at Aish HaTorah in Jerusalem for two years, from 2017 to 2019.[11][12][13]

In January 2024, Kestenbaum was the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit against Harvard University.[23][24][18][25][26] The lawsuit included six anonymous Jewish students under the name Students Against Antisemitism and alleged that the university failed to address antisemitic harassment and discrimination against Jewish and Israeli students, particularly following the October 7 attacks.[10][27][28] The plaintiffs claimed that Harvard violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by not protecting Jewish and Israeli students from discrimination and harassment, breached contractual obligations, and failed to uphold the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.[21]

Initially a registered Democrat and supporter of progressive candidates like Bernie Sanders,[36][37][38] Kestenbaum gained attention for speaking at the Republican National Convention in July 2024.[11] During his speech, he highlighted issues of antisemitism and criticized Harvard University's handling of such incidents.[18] He expressed his disillusionment with antisemitic elements within both far-left and far-right factions. His speech was reportedly well-received by the audience.[10] He endorsed Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, citing dissatisfaction with Democratic leadership and the party's handling of antisemitism and emphasizing the need for stronger measures against antisemitism.[39][40]
