On Tyranny” is the name of a book written by Dr. Timothy Snyder - professor of Modern European History at the University of Toronto.  In his book he summarizes the history and lessons learned from the European experience of yielding their democracy to fascism.

In a recent live broadcast, Professor Snyder summarizes his book and identifies the similarities between 20th century Europe demise of democracy and the United States.

Feeling helpless? You’re not alone.  The American Psychology Association reports a significant increase (30%) in cases of mental health disorders during 2025 – depression, anxiety, isolation. Americans are deeply affected by witnessing the disregard for human dignity and the decline of our functioning federal democracy.

In the video, Dr. Snyder offers practical suggestions, both individually and collectively, about how to help protect our federal democracy and how to resist the transition towards fascism.
