The Uncomfortable Truth: When Is Dissent A Duty?
Hosted By: Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA)
n THE TRAITORS CIRCLE: The True Story of a Secret Resistance Network in Nazi Germany—and the Spy Who Betrayed Them — New York Times bestselling, award winning author and journalist Jonathan Freedland sheds light on one of the most dramatic episodes of World War II. In a page-turning work of nonfiction that reads like a thriller, he uncovers an almost entirely forgotten story of courage, resistance and betrayal that has deep moral resonance for our own time – asking what kind of person it takes to risk everything and stand up to tyranny.
Jonathan Freedland is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Escape Artist: The Man Who Broke Out of Auschwitz to Save the World (National Jewish Book Award winner in both the Biography and Holocaust categories), a weekly columnist for the Guardian and previously the Guardian’s Washington correspondent. Freedland is co-host of the Unholy podcast.
