Whistleblowers: Four Who Fought to Expose the Holocaust to America

Summary

A compelling nonfiction graphic novel, set on the stage of World War II, Whistleblowers is the true story of 4 courageous individuals who risked their careers-or their lives-to confront the unfolding Holocaust. Who were the whistleblowers? A young journalist-and future U.S. senator-who exposed the truth of Hitler''s plans. A member of Franklin Roosevelt''s cabinet who pressured the President to grant haven to refugees. An eyewitness to Nazi atrocities who met with American and British officials to disclose the death camps. An American civil servant who blew the whistle on colleagues who were blocking the rescue of refugees. Acclaimed author Rafael Medoff, co-founder of the David Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies, and award-winning comics creator Dean Motter bring to life these tales of moral courage in the shadow of genocide.
