The Courage of Strangers: Coming of Age With the Human Rights Movement,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
After Jeri Laber earned a Master's degree in Russian studies at Columbia University, she became a parttime writer and editor and a fulltime wife and mother. Then one day in 1973 she read an article about torture that altered her life and subsequently the lives of countless others around the world.The Courage of Strangers tells how Laber became a founder and the executive director of Helsinki Watch, which grew to be Human Rights Watch, one of the world's most influential organizations. She describes her secret trips to unwelcoming countries, where she met with some of the great political activists of the time. She also recalls what it was like to come of age professionally in an era when women were supposed to follow rather than lead; how she struggled to balance work and family; and how her fight for human rights informed her own intellectual, spiritual and emotional development.This story of the birth of the human rights movement is also a sweeping history of dissent and triumph in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Elegantly written, full of passion, humor and political wisdom, it is exciting history as well as a moving, entertaining, inspiring story of a woman's life.
