Sociologist Arthur B. Shostak discusses his new non-fiction title, Stealth Altruism: Forbidden Care as Jewish Resistance in the Holocaust.

Stealth Altruism: Forbidden Care as Jewish Resistance in the Holocaust tells of secret, non-militant, high-risk efforts by Jewish victims to reduce suffering and improve the chances of survival. Their inspiring acts of altruistic care remind us of our inherent longing to do good even in unimaginably evil situations. Author Arthur B. Shostak will share moving examples of forbidden behavior that affirm the "better angels of our Nature" and bolster our confidence in humanity's prospects. He calls for overdue attention to the Help Story, and offers pragmatic ideas for accomplishing an uplifting reset in the Holocaust narrative and commemoration efforts - ideas applicable to all such honorific memorial matters, secular and Sacred.”
