How do we fight the far right?

With open encouragement from Donald Trump, and often working hand-in-hand with local police, the far right in the US has become a serious threat. White supremacists have driven cars into Black Lives Matter rallies. They no longer just bring guns to protests, they are prepared to use them. Many on the left believe that the rise of neo-fascism has created a real threat to what is already very limited democracy in the US. Join a discussion on the nature of the far-right movement and how we can organize to defeat it.
