Maria Ressa’s How to Stand Up to a Dictator is a political memoir, media critique, and warning about the fragility of democracy in the digital age. Drawing on her work as a journalist in the Philippines and her experience as the founder of Rappler, Ressa shows how authoritarian power grows through a combination of state pressure, legal intimidation, and coordinated disinformation. The book is not only about one country or one leader; it connects events in the Philippines to broader global patterns, including the rise of strongman politics, the manipulation of social media, and the erosion of trust in institutions. Its purpose is both personal and civic: to document what happens when truth-telling becomes dangerous, and to argue that citizens, journalists, and institutions must actively defend democratic norms before they are weakened beyond repair.
