“His presentation was riveting and insightful. … Such reflection led to his heartfelt transformation, giving him a deep understanding of the mindset of extremists and the means for them to replace hate with compassion.”

Daniel Rothbart,Professor of Conflict Analysis and Resolution, George Mason University

“At the end of his talk, a student called him Bold. That pretty much sums up who Jeff Schoep is—BOLD. Every day Jeff speaks he is taking a risk by acknowledging his faults. He is confident and courageous and has a fearless daring spirit that once took pride in hate and violence to now exercising non-violence and love.”

Erica Austin Deputy Director, Office of External Relations, SIU School of Medicine

“Jeff engaged with the students from a very personal level and the students were transfixed during his speech. … He answered with an honesty that was an inspiration for the students. In short—Jeff's speech was a great success and we would be happy to host him again.”

Louise Mørup Teacher, Kuben High School, Oslo, Norway

“The lead speaker's powerful and personal story about their past involvement in a hate group deeply resonated with our students. … The student feedback from today's assembly has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the profound impact it has had on our school community.”

Mina Sadiki Principal, IS 187, New York

“During his presentation, Mr. Schoep shared personal details about why he became a neo-Nazi many years ago and, perhaps most importantly, about the forces that ultimately changed his mind and led him to leave the movement and begin speaking out against hate.”
