The Far Right, The Elections, and The Future of Democracy

Future of Democracy Graphic Recording.jpg

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a surge in anti-Asian racism, which we know is made possible by anti-Blackness and anti-indigeneity, and an opportunity for white nationalists and other far right factions to organize and expand their base. Join a discussion with historians, experts and organizers about what we can expect as we approach the coming presidential election, and what politics might look like in post-COVID America.
