Miriam Lewin is a prominent Argentine journalist and a survivor of the country's military dictatorship, which operated from 1976 to 1983. Kidnapped as a young activist in 1977, Lewin endured torture and was one of the many who were 'disappeared' by the regime. After her release, she became a vocal advocate for human rights and accountability, using her experiences to highlight the dangers of authoritarianism. Lewin has authored several books, including the forthcoming 'Iosi, the Remorseful Spy,' and created the podcast 'The Burden: Avenger,' which recounts her harrowing experiences and ongoing fight for justice. Her work continues to reflect the importance of safeguarding civil liberties in the face of rising authoritarianism both in Argentina and worldwide.
