Selina Robinson was a senior minister in British Columbia’s government, helping guide the province through an unprecedented pandemic and then 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 readers to engage in genuine progressive work to end racism and advance peace for all.
