Indignez-vous!

Stéphane Hessel

Indignez-vous! is a scathing pamphlet of liberation by Stéphane Hessel, a combative ninety-three-year-old French diplomat and ex-partisan, who has gained thousands of readers with this text. Where are the values passed down by the Resistance, the desire for justice and equality, the progressive society for all?

Reminding us of the bad things in life are the daily events made up of injustices and horrors, like war, violence and massacres. Hessel sets out from here to point out the reasons for fighting and keeping one’s guard up.
