Written in the wake of the (sadly) first Trump election, this book gives keys on how to resist in an age of rising tyranny. When the far right is rising a bit everywhere, I feel such books are vital into not giving up, and while it might be hard to keep hope, it also give some paths to explore on how to resist and face those rising dangers for our democracies.
