Steve Crawshaw: Can We Prosecute the Powerful?

About

Could we ever see Putin in the dock for his crimes? What about a Western ally like Netanyahu. Prosecuting the Powerful - a blend of powerful eyewitness reporting and gripping history - shows us how it is more likely than we might think.
Steve Crawhaw has written and worked on human rights and justice for more than thirty years. He’ll share recent stories from the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine and at The Hague, as well as his earlier encounters with war criminals like Slobodan Milosevic.
As survivors seek justice for crimes committed against them, governments must finally abandon their double standards. For all the current darkness, this is a historic opportunity. The scales of justice can and must be balanced.
