Trump’s War on Dissent — and the Fight to Defy It

Watch on YouTube

This week’s episode is the recording of the webinar on October 25 with Robert Held (President of the Chicago Council of Lawyers), Will Potter (investigative journalist), Sergio Alcubilla (Director of Community Engagement at the ACLU of Hawaiʻi), and Drew Harmon (Minnesota 50501):

From NSPM-7 to political prosecutions and the threat of lengthy prison sentences, the Trump Regime is expanding its machinery of repression, equating anti-fascism with “domestic terrorism” and targeting political beliefs, associations, organizing and protest.

The threat extends far beyond those directly targeted: to intimidate millions into silence at precisely the moment mass opposition is urgently needed. We’ll examine this escalating repression, what it will take to defend those under attack, and drive this regime from power.

IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA!

NOW IS the TIME WHEN WE MUST RISE UP and ACT to STOP the CONSOLIDATION of TRUMP MAGA FASCISM. For the lives of people here and around the world we must refuse unlawful and inhumane orders… we must fill the streets and town squares in non-violent protest—not stopping until we become millions — not relenting until this regime is no longer able to implement its program or maintain its hold on power.
