A compelling nonfiction graphic novel written by Rafael Medoff and illustrated by Dean Motter, Whistleblowers is the true story of courageous individuals who risked their careers—or their lives—to confront the unfolding Holocaust.

Author Rafael Medoff will discuss the stories captured in the book and the process of translating them into the graphic novel format. San Francisco author Ruth Landy will highlight the chapter on the St. Louis, the infamous ship carrying 930 German Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi Germany, which was turned away by the governments of Cuba and the United States. Her family members were passengers on the ship.
