In “Lessons From A Dark Time,” Bay Area journalist Adam Hochschild has assembled essays from his reporting on issues of human rights and social justice. Written through a historical and activist lens, Hochschild’s book takes readers from the 1898 Battle of Omdurman to Nelson Mandela’s campaign trail to a gun show at the Cow Palace. We’ll talk to Hochschild about his new book and how history informs his present view.
