On September 5th we made a LIVING DECLARATION to the world that we are uniting, we are organizing, we are determined, we are preparing to struggle with all we’ve got, starting now and not stopping until the Trump/Pence regime is driven from power and its fascist program brought to a halt.

Some 1,700 people took to the streets in 20 cities across the U.S. on Saturday, September 5, in mass non-violent protest demanding TRUMP/PENCE OUT NOW and launching 60 days of struggle. Hundreds marched in NYC, protesters defied fascist thugs in Houston and Orlando, important voices from the religious community, fighters against police terror, veterans of struggles for civil liberties, and others shared powerful testimony for why Trump/Pence must go NOW.

Refuse Fascism’s Mission in 2025: 

Refuse Fascism leads people to understand and resist Trump/MAGA fascism. We unite with people from diverse perspectives to stop the second Trump regime from consolidating power and carrying out great horrors. Through our podcast and other public programs we expose and analyze the threat we face, promote efforts to defend people targeted by the fascists, and most essentially challenge and inspire the non-fascist majority of people living in the United States, the tens of millions of people who care about humanity and hate what Trump represents, to break out of the deadly confines of politics-as-usual and engage in determined, defiant action to defeat this American Fascism.

… READ AND SHARE THE ENTIRE MISSION STATEMENT


The Refuse Fascism Podcast…

is an essential tool for understanding and uniting to defeat the American fascist movement that imperils all of humanity. Each week host Sam Goldman provides commentary and analysis alongside in-depth interviews with scholars and activists from diverse perspectives on the very real threat of fascism coming to power in the United States.
