This edition we talk to Kate Burns, who's going to give us a primer on San Diego's Awaken Church, who have an "ambassador" to Turning Point USA. TPUSA's Charlie Kirk recently made a speech at an Awaken location where he said antiracism is anti-Christian.

This week, we've got the audio from a panel with me, Shane Burley, Alexander Reid Ross and Mic Crenshaw to launch No Pasaran! Antifascist Dispatches from a World in Crisis, the book Shane put together and all of us contributed essays to. We broached a number of topics from historical antifascism to modern day challenges and I even got a little personal.

Short episode this week. Apologies for being late, but being on the road don't lend well to uploading podcasts. This edition has some new stuff we tried out for a recurring news segment. Let us know what you think of it.

This week we're talking to John the Lefty, one of the most clued-in independent journalists in Portland about some recent stories. First we'll talk a new fascist group active in the area, then dive into the verdicts in the Joey Gibson/Patriot Prayer/Cider Riot trials. Then we're talking about the recent arrest made for the murder of antifascist activist Sean Kealiher. We recorded before the arraignment but the alleged killer, Christopher Knipe, will go to trial on the 26th of September. Knipe pleaded not guilty this week to 2nd Degree Homicide charges.

This week’s emergency mega-episode is all about Roe v. Wade. We talk to Kat Green from the Abortion Access Front in a wide-ranging conversation about the ramifications of the recent SCOTUS decision and AAF’s work tracking the groups terrorizing people seeking abortions. Then we plunge right into coverage of the weekend’s protests in different cities around the country. Haley from Arizona Right Wing Watch talks fire from the sky in Phoenix, Carter Hues talks Proud Boys twiddling their thumbs in Nashville, Eli Knésól talks Vegas liberal groups who pointed protesters out to cops, I talk about taking the freeway in L.A. and James Croxton talks about armed stalkers and car attacks in Eugene, OR. All of this bodes well for the future!
