Today I did a live broadcast which will be the first of a series of online concerts I plan to do about resistance.

Whether we're talking about armed uprisings, mass civil disobedience, or actions carried out by much smaller groups of people, current events and history are full of stories of resistance.

"When you fight, you win" may not quite be actually true, even if it's a good slogan. But even if making the effort doesn't always get the desired results, resistance in its many forms often leads to positive changes that wouldn't have happened otherwise.

The themes I explore in this episode include:

• When the Ottoman Navy rescued as many as 800,000 Spanish Jews in 1492
