À propos de cet audio

Selina Robinson was a senior minister in British Columbia’s government, helping guide the province through an unprecedented pandemic and overseeing a successful economic recovery. Then came October 7 and a global tsunami of antisemitism. Robinson—one of Canada’s most prominent Jewish elected officials—was instantly in the sights of anti-Israel and antisemitic activists.

In this searing, powerful memoir, Robinson reflects on the antisemitism she experienced in government and the silence of colleagues who betrayed the values she thought they shared.

Truth Be Told is more than a personal testimony. It is a cautionary story of the dangers to multiculturalism and democracy when leaders fold in the face of coercion, place expediency above principles, refuse to stand against antisemitism, and silence the only person in government with the courage to speak out.

Truth Be Told is Robinson’s invitation for listeners to engage in genuine progressive work to end racism and advance peace for all.

I ran into the author, Selina Robinson, at a gathering recently. She reminded me that she had made her book audio because that is how I listen to books. That night I downloaded the book and had it read in 1 and 1/2 days! I couldn’t stop listening. I found it incredibly powerful: so well written, deeply informative, and profoundly moving. Selina’s professionalism and strength in the face of such injustice was/is inspiring. I truly learned a lot. One of my personal mantras is “when I know better, I do better,” and this book really reinforced that. I’m so glad she had the courage to write it. This book and her work will and has made a real difference for so many. It has for me for which I am very thankful.

The author’s courage to share her truth through adversity.
