Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny: 20 Lessons from the 20th Century

Details

Timothy Snyder is a history professor at Yale University; he specializes in the history of fascism and communism in the 20th century.
His short (126-page) book On Tyranny proposes 20 ideas for how an oncoming tyranny can be resisted and opposed. These ideas come from his study of the tyrannies of the 20th century.

Let's discuss Snyder's ideas and see if they make sense.

On Tyranny is available at local libraries and at Amazon here: LINK
Here is a video of Snyder talking about the book: LINK

I hope to see you there!
