JOIN US. On Saturday, 14 September for a daylong educational and inspirational event of speakers, poets, artists, activists to fuel us with information, strategies, solidarity and energy to ignite the movement we need right now.
Throughout the day, we will unpack what fascism is in the US and globally and what we can do to combat it. We will explore the impact on all of us from women’s bodies to anti-Blackness and the suppression of LGBTQ+ and the disabled, to the banning of books, erasing history and immigration bans, union busting, increasing violence and expansion of the police state, and the destruction of the Earth.
We come together in solidarity, the antidote to loneliness and alienation that are fundamental to fascism.
