Join this Circle as they read On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century by Timothy Snyder, a concise and urgent guide to recognizing and resisting authoritarianism. Drawing from his expertise in 20th-century European history, Snyder presents 20 actionable lessons that highlight how democracies can falter and how individuals can act to preserve freedom. The book emphasizes the importance of defending institutions, upholding truth, and engaging in civic participation. Published in 2017, it became a New York Times bestseller and remains a relevant resource for understanding the fragility of democratic systems.
