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.

Federal immigration enforcement officials called off a planned raid on Canal Street today shortly before it was slated to begin.

New Yorkers who heard about the raid showed up at the garage where the feds had gathered, and as federal agents tried to leave, the NYPD cleared the way for them.

Today marks the 50 year anniversary of the death of fascist dictator Francisco Franco. Fitting that today, after over a year of work, I finished translating @miquelramos.bsky.social book "Antifascists: Fighting the Spanish Far Right in the Post-Franco Era" for @pmpress.bsky.social.

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.
