Nazism has always faced resistance from 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. Resisting 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 original interviews with the people involved, their families, and their colleagues. With antisemitism rising in the US, and a far-right populist threat that increasingly resembles the Nazi past, these stories are a timely response. There are twelve chapters in that tell a different story of resistance, tracking resistance to Nazism from the 1920s to the present. Sometimes, the stories involve incredible daring and enormous risk, but they will also show that resistance can begin with something as simple as writing down your ideas or showing solidarity with the oppressed.
