To give an example, he campaigned tirelessly for civil rights but then testified before the controversial House Committee on Un-American Activities, seen by many as a witch-hunt.

Eleven years after the registered level-3 sex offender was arrested, four cases associated with his 2005 criminal investigation remain open. The pedophile was not prosecuted under The Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA), a law enacted in Florida in 2000. In this gripping exposé, Sarnoff finds out why.

But in the years following the controversial best seller’s publication, the author’s resilience was tested in ways she never expected.

"Uomini contro la mafia" è la storia di una resistenza anomala. Una resistenza che inizia con la nascita della consorteria mafiosa e prosegue fino ai giorni nostri. È la storia di uomini che hanno speso la propria vita affinché la mafia potesse essere sconfitta e che, troppo spesso, sono caduti per difendere le istituzioni democratiche di un Paese distratto e irriconoscente. Servitori dello Stato e uomini di Chiesa, esponenti della società civile e dirigenti di partito, imprenditori e sindacalisti: personalità diverse unite dallo stesso destino.

L'infanzia ad Alessandria d'Egitto, gli insegnamenti del nonno, la disciplina del collegio, il debutto in società. Poi gli anni in Svizzera, l'università, l'interpretariato, l'incontro con il buddismo.

Ecco le storie di vita quotidiana, di emozioni, di gioie, di successi, vissute dagli operatori umanitari italiani di Medici senza frontiere, raccontate attraverso le loro lettere e i loro racconti. Diversi sono gli scenari ma comuni molti dei riferimenti: l'ingiustizia, la mancanza di strutture sanitarie minimali o di acqua, la morte per denutrizione.

Narrando le azioni e le ragioni che muovono i corpi ribelli, l'autore attraversa epoche e luoghi diversi, dall'Europa all'America Latina, portando alla luce le esistenze di uomini e donne che hanno sacrificato tutto a un ideale. Insieme alle gesta di Tupac Amaru o del condottiero maya "Serpente Nero", rivivono le imprese di "Quico" Sabaté, l'anarchico inventore di un mortaio lancia-proclami per bombardare i franchisti; le beffe della primula rossa Silvio Corbari, il partigiano che prendeva in giro i nazifascisti.
