“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.” – Franklin D. Roosevelt
Moral courage is in the spotlight today given an upsurge in authoritarian regimes worldwide. To date, 96 investigative journalists have been killed in the Israeli /Hamas war.
Why do investigative journalists stand up to intolerant regimes, often single-handedly? In the book, Moral Courage, 19 international journalists explain their rational for the work they do.
Hear how these extraordinary people (who possess Moral Courage to fight Moral Injury) literally put their bodies on the line so that the rest of us may learn the truth.
We speak with Canadian neuropsychiatrist Anthony Feinstein who has a strong and lauded track record in the field of conflict journalism research and we will learn what motivates investigative journalists to expose crime, corruption, and greed despite the personal risks involved.
Interview Guest:
Anthony Feinstein, Ph.D., is a neuropsychiatrist and professor of Psychiatry at the University of Toronto. His research follows two strands – the search for cerebral correlates of behavioral disorders associated with multiple sclerosis, and exploring the psychological effects of conflict on journalists.
Dr. Feinstein consults with news organizations including the New York Times, CNN and The Globe & Mail providing educational sessions about frontline journalists’ emotional health. He is the author of seven books including his most recent, Moral Courage: 19 Profiles of Investigative Journalists.
In 2000-2001 he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to study mental health issues in post-apartheid Namibia. In 2012, he produced a documentary, “Under Fire” based on his research of journalists in war zones, which won a Peabody Award.
"Understandably, as the consequences of responding to morally egregious behavior become increasingly more hazardous, the number of people prepared to say something or take action becomes very small indeed." - Anthony Feinstein
