I teach a history of antifascism course @ruhistorydept.bsky.social and figured I'd start an ongoing thread this semester to share some insights from course readings and recommend some great works on antifascism.

If, like me you don’t speak Portuguese, you can translate pretty easily - and thus read more or less directly from one of the largest Black media organizations in Brazil.

The ‘antifa’ boogeyman

From: www.nj.com/opinion/2025...
Image of a monster next to someone dressed as a stereotypical anarchist with a circle a on their sweatshirt. Caption: “Hi. I’m the Boogeyman. A mythical creature used to frighten children into doing what they’re told. This is my buddy Antifa. He does the same thing but for Republican Adults.”

Unfounded claims of 500% and 1000% increases in assaults against ICE officers and a crackdown on “doxxing” of ICE agents looking like a red herring in greater federal effort to justify military deployment to U.S. cities @shaanthx.bsky.social reports

ICE promised doxing cases against Portland ‘anarchists.’ Months later, no charges filed • Oregon Capital Chronicle
Three months since Kristi Noem vowed charges against Portland "anachists" for doxing, it appears her agency has yet to follow through.

Ya sabéis que Mark Bray y Miquel Ramos tienen dos librazos en los que analizan la historia del antifascismo contemporáneo; Bray en casi una veintena de países, y Ramos en el estado español desde los años 90.
No faltes, va a merecer mucho la pena.
