Defiant: Profiles of Resistance by Brian Dooley

Defiant: Profiles of Resistance brings together eleven true stories of people across Europe who became human rights defenders after witnessing injustice in their communities.

Human rights activist Brian Dooley follows people sheltering migrants in Poland, helping those caught in the war in Ukraine, exposing pollution in Turkey and resisting environmentally destructive mining in Bosnia and Northern Ireland. Drawing on decades of frontline reporting, he explores the choices and risks behind their actions, showing how ordinary people can challenge repression, defend their neighbours and bring about change.
