Defiance: A Memoir of Awakening, Rebellion, and Survival in Syria
Join a powerful lunchtime conversation at Columbia Journalism School with author Loubna Mrie as she discusses her new book, Defiance.
From the streets of Aleppo to exile in New York City, Defiance tells the gripping story of one woman’s fight for freedom—against a father, a regime, and the weight of inherited belief.
Raised in a world where loyalty meant survival, Loubna’s life changed forever when the Arab Spring reached Syria. What followed was a courageous journey into resistance, truth-telling, and sacrifice.
Author Loubna Mrie will be in conversation with Azmat Khan, Director of the Simon and June Li Center for Global Journalism. Copies of Defiance will be available for purchase.
This event is sponsored by the Simon and June Li Center for Global Journalism at Columbia University and the Overseas Press Club.
