11. Investigate
12. Make eye contact and small talk. Stay in touch with your surroundings and break down social barriers and understand whom you should and should not trust
13. Practice corporeal politics. Get outside. Put your body in unfamiliar places with unfamiliar people. Make new friends and march with them
14. Establish a private life. Tyrants seek the hook on which to hang you. Try not to have hooks
15. Contribute to good causes. Be active in organizations
16. Learn from peers in other countries. Make sure you and your family have passports.
17. Listen for dangerous words like emergency, exception, terrorism, and extremism. Be angry about the treacherous use of patriotic vocabulary
18. Be calm when the unthinkable arrives. When the terror attack comes, remember that authoritarians exploit such events in order to consolidate power
19. Be a patriot. Set a good example of what America means for the generations to come
20. Be as courageous as you can

“Here is my best guidance for action, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons more than eight years ago... They open the twenty chapters of On #Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century.

Above is his film. Below is the text, excerpted from the book. Do share this.”
