In Never Alone: Prison, Politics, and My People, Natan Sharansky, who spent nine years in prison in the Soviet Union for his activities as a “Refusenik” – a Jewish dissident denied permission to emigrate to Israel – reveals how his time in jail, much of it in harsh solitary confinement, prepared him for what became a very public life after his release. Gil Troy, Sharansky’s collaborator, frequently examines politics and policy and is the author of The Zionist Ideas: Visions for the Jewish Homeland – Then, Now, Tomorrow. They’re joined by former New York Times opinion writer Bari Weiss, who delivers an urgent wake-up call to all Americans exposing the alarming rise of anti-Semitism in this country – and explains what we can do to defeat it – in How to Fight Anti-Semitism.
