It is a testimony, a confrontation, and a call to moral reckoning.</strong></p><p>In 1997, Johan Obdola arrived in Canada as a political refugee after risking his life fighting corruption, narco-cartels, and criminal syndicates in Venezuela. He came seeking safety - and found himself, decades later, trapped once again. But this time, not in a jungle of bullets, but in a labyrinth of polite bureaucracy, racial profiling, and systemic indifference.</p><p><em>The Silence That Speaks</em> tells the harrowing true story of a Canadian citizen - a global security expert, human rights defender, and refugee-turned-public voice - who was wrongfully detained in British Columbia in 2020. Denied his legal rights, stripped of dignity, and made invisible by the very institutions meant to protect him, Johan exposes a deeply uncomfortable truth: that even in Canada, a nation often praised for its justice and inclusion, silence can become a weapon, and process can become complicity.</p><p>But this is not a book of hatred. It is a book of fierce love. It is written by a man who refuses to surrender his voice to fear, or his country to illusion.</p><p>Across seven powerful chapters, Johan recounts not only his own experience but also connects it to a wider crisis - the silent suffering of Indigenous mothers, racialized immigrants, war veterans abandoned by their government, and all those whose cries for justice are drowned in legal indifference. Through poetry, memory, and critical insight, he builds a narrative that is both deeply personal and politically urgent.</p><p>With stark black-and-white images marking each chapter, <em>The Silence That Speaks</em> is part memoir, part indictment, part invocation. It challenges Canada - and every reader - to decide what kind of nation we want to be: one that performs inclusion, or one that truly practices justice.</p><p>Johan Obdola is a member of the Global Diplomatic Forum in London and the founder of IOSI Global and PRAEON Advisory. He has supported Indigenous initiatives across Canada and leads humanitarian efforts for vulnerable communities in the Amazon. He is a regular contributor to international media and continues to speak truth across borders - with dignity, courage, and clarity.</p><blockquote><p><em>"This book is not a complaint. It is a confrontation. Not with hate, but with history. Because history, when left unspoken, becomes permission."</em></p></blockquote>...9781775245377_Johan Obdola Publishinglibro_electonico_9781775245377_9781775245377Johan ObdolaInglésMéxicohttps://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ingram30-epub-8ad46bc4-fa45-4df6-9d2d-cacc840add61.epub2025-07-22T00:00:00+00:00Johan Obdola Publishing
