How to Stand Up to a Dictator by Maria Ressa

3.75

---

This certainly was not what was advertised - there was not much actionable information in this book about how to stand up to a dictator imo. I'm not denying the importance of journalist's work in uncovering and shining light on corrupt and abusive behavior, but everyday people can't really do that. In the end, it was an interesting read about an interesting person, but it also could have gotten more personal. It seemed to be trying to do too many things.
