This is an entire class on how the tools used to target Muslim communities, are now being used on so many communities. And how we are safer in solidarity. So grateful to Darakshan and the work of Muslims for Just Futures.
After 9/11, the U.S government used the War on Terror to arrest and terrorize entire communities, under the guise of creating safety. Tune in this week as we discuss what we can learn from that era so that we choose solidarity over fear.

This past week on the Fascism Barometer, we spoke with Ken Montenegro and Che Johnson-Long about why now is an opportunity for us to assess what type of world we want to build as we fight continue to fascism. Fascism doesn't just seek to steal our safety, it also seeks to steal our joy.

Friends the episode with @iamcristinajimenez.bsky.social was powerful, honest, and grounded. We talked about what's needed to defend immigrant communities, but also beyond defense. Cristina offered an incredible vision on how to build a world where everyone has dignity and belonging.

Friends this conversation with @lumumbabandele.bsky.social is so powerful! We discuss the lessons that the Black Freedom Movement offers anti-fascist movements, from victories, to experiences of surviving government repression. And check out the Resource Hub for action steps and more reading.
What are two things that other anti-fascist resources have in common?
They weren't made by or for black people. And they don't talk about black experiences of oppression or liberation.

I'm so grateful for @lsarsour.bsky.social for joining us on the @fascismbarometer.bsky.social. She offers us a masterclass on solidarity and shows us how Palestinian liberation and anti-fascist movements are connected. In these times of tremendous repression, she highlights our power.
In Episode 6 (S2), @lsarsour.bsky.social shares her insights from decades of organizing and movement building. In times when we see people do truly awful things, she reminds us that we all hold power as individuals—and even greater power when we unite in solidarity. Listen at fascismbarometer.org.

Friends this episode covers sooo much ground.... @shaneburley.bsky.social helps us connect this stage of fascism, to organizing amidst collapse, how to challenge antisemitism and it's weaponization, and how we connect all these struggles and to support Palestinian communities and movements.
Shane Burley explains that when the administration undermines our power in the courts and Congress, we have only one option left, each other. Find out on Ep 5 (S2) – Safety Through Solidarity: How Anti-War and Anti-Fascist Struggles are Connected. Listen at fascismbarometer.org. #antiwar

Yall this episode with @malkiadevichcyril.bsky.social is so powerful. Excited for your thoughts on the connections between radical loss, collective grief, and organizing against fascism.
When the fascists seek to break us down, we turn our collective grief into power. On Ep 4 (S2), Grief Is the Healing: Malkia Devich-Cyril on Organizing Through Loss, @malkiadevichcyril.bsky.social explores the emotions of organizing in repressive times. Listen, subscribe at fascismbarometer.org.
