A lively conversation will be lead by scholar-activists, organizers, and writers on the subject, based on two recent publications: On Microfascism: Gender, War, and Death and For Antifascist Futures: Against the Violence of Imperial Crisis. Both On Microfascism _and For Antifascist Futures_ offer original and penetrating insight into today’s swell of fascist and reactionary cultural forces and links its expressions to important dimensions of racialized masculinity and gender politics, as well as global dimensions of ongoing colonialism and racial capitalism.
