Resisting Nazism: True Stories of Resistance to the World's Most Dangerous Ideology, from 1920 to the Present - Luke Berryman

\nNazism has always faced resistance, from when it began in the 1920s up to the present. This resistance has come from people of all faiths, nationalities, and political affiliations. Many of them have been forgotten, such as the German artists who risked their lives by drawing caricatures of the Nazis in the 1920s, or the man who infiltrated the SS to try to expose the Holocaust in the 1940s, or the people who uncovered former Nazis as part of a groundbreaking documentary in the 1970s. \n \nResisting Nazism is the first book to connect such stories, painting a vivid picture of resistance to far-right extremism across the generations. It's built on deep research, and on interviews with the people involved, their families, and their colleagues, and with academic experts. With antisemitism rising in the US, and a far-right populist threat that increasingly resembles the Nazi past, this will be a timely and welcomed response to this question. \n \nThere are twelve chapters in Resisting Nazism. Each one tells a different story of resistance. But, instead of focusing on the time between 1933 and 1945, the book tracks resistance to Nazism from the 1920s to the present. Sometimes, the stories in Resisting Nazism involve incredible daring and enormous risk. But they will also empower readers by showing that resistance can begin with something as simple as writing down your ideas or showing solidarity with the oppressed.\n
