The increase and visibility of white supremacist and state violence, rising authoritarianism, and fascism is directly connected to imperial warfare and genocides that are happening across the world. In order for fascism to grow, oppositional forces attach themselves to an increasingly brutal police state, repressive legislative sweeps, a rising authoritarian far right base, and the criminal legal system. Fascism has and will continue to move us further away from self determination, destroy our communities, and spearhead the collapse of movements for transformative change and liberation; if it is not completely uprooted.    

Consider how many bills did your legislature pass in 2023 to limit our freedoms? How many folks in your community were harassed or brutalized at the hands of the police? How many prisons and detention centers receive funding for expansion? What stipulations are being forced on our children’s education?; and that's just a few instances to assess.

From the attack on students calling for the divestment from the war machine to the release of Project 2025. Our people must assemble together to resist, build, and organize a plan to defend our ground and protect our people.
