by Inês Pedrosa, Andrea Rosenberg
Chris told me about this book and I just ordered it on Kindle for $1.99. Here is one of several highlighted passages she shared with me from the book:
For every act of horror, we found infinite acts of love. Our shared passion for history led us to human generosity: in the shadow of every dictator, we found a throng of democrats; in the creases of each massacre, thousands of lives devoted to other people’s happiness. The sowers of horror were always a minority—an effective minority, sure, but one that grows in exact proportion to people’s belief in their power. And the two of us refused to believe. That persistent refusal was, for us, a war against the propagandistic expansion of terror.
