Veterans Fighting Fascism, Antifascist Book Club
We are following the example of friend of the network, Kristofer Goldsmith, to provide every one of us with the knowledge and tools needed to go on the offensive against authoritarianism. The mission of the Book Club is to educate, organize, empower, and communicate practical resources and organization tips to transform knowledge into action.
