How to Stand Up to a Dictator: Fight for our Future

by Maria Ressa

Join the Freedom Readers Book Club! We’re building community and arming ourselves with knowledge to face the challenges ahead.

This month’s book was written by Maria Ressa, one of the most renowned international journalists of our time. For decades, she challenged corruption and malfeasance in her native country, the Philippines, on its rocky path from an authoritarian state to a democracy. 

Democracy is fragile. How to Stand Up to a Dictator is an urgent cry for Western readers to recognize and understand the dangers to our freedoms before it is too late. It is a book for anyone who might take democracy for granted, written by someone who never would. And in telling her dramatic and turbulent and courageous story, Ressa forces readers to ask themselves the same question she and her colleagues ask every day: What are you willing to sacrifice for the truth?
