Description
Maria Ressa's personal story is a powerful warning about the dangers of a world where truth is under attack. As a journalist who has spent decades speaking out against injustice, she has faced severe consequences, including multiple arrest warrants and a potential 100+ years in prison.
In "How to Stand Up to a Dictator", Ressa maps the complex web of disinformation that has spread across the globe, from the Philippines to the US Capitol, from Brexit to cyber-warfare. This is a story about the erosion of democracy and the loss of freedom, and Ressa's urgent cry to wake up and take action.
This book is a worthwhile read for anyone concerned about the state of democracy and the power of truth in the digital age.
