YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE

We are excited to announce Antifa Con 2020! TBA!

We are planning anti-fascist panels, actions, and dance parties, and nailing down venues and locations and states which sadly are still shut down because of this administration’s incompetence, disinformation, their work with foreign powers to undermine our democracy to benefit oligarchs, and their callous inhumanity. But have no fear, the anti-fascists are here! Or is it…Antifa IS here!

So while we’re mapping out alternatives to past present and future dystopia, and drawing up an extensive Antifa Org Chart to share with those of you who have asked (you have to tell us if you’re cops!) here are the best things you can do RIGHT NOW to fight fascism:

1. Register to vote (register Democratic Party if you want to vote in the primaries next time!)
2. Know your voting options
   1. Absentee/mail-in voting/which is the same thing (including drop-off alternatives to USPS mailing in case the fascists totally dismantle it to fuck with the election, as is their stated intention) Request it ASAP, mail by mid-October or deliver in person if you can
   1. Early Voting dates and locations
   2. Election Day (Nov 3) polling place, hours, plan a time and transportation
3. Check in with friends and family to make sure they are registered to vote, that they know their voting options and ask them to help someone else do the same. Note: if they are fascist, don’t waste time trying to convince them of the beauty of antifascism, just move on to the next friend or family member who maybe wasn’t even going to vote
4. Figure out who to vote for in local and national elections and share your discoveries with others
   1. When possible, vote for people who are NOT fascist and haven’t supported fascist leaders and institutions
      1. Disqualifies most of the Republican party
      2. Disqualifies those working to rebuild the GOP after Trump, though they put him there and voted for all these fascistic tools he uses to do his fascism
      3. If you aren’t excited about your candidates for national or local races, vote for the best option anyway, and then find another state’s race that you can get excited about. Flip the senate, for instance! Ditch Mitch!
      4. The goal is to rebuild the Democratic party from local up so that it will look like and reflect the will of the people in it. Then we’ll have the numbers to do more than just put out this constitutional trash fire and stop the fascist overthrow of our democracy
      5. Hate politics like Michelle Obama does? Find an issue you do care about, health/science/pandemic, climate change, anti-racism and help work for that and let those actions be your voice. But also vote.
      6. You have more time? Do some phone or text banking to strangers in other places, battleground states and communities. There are tons of independent groups that do this but also the Dem party does it here. Talk to your friends and family again
5. You have more money? Good for you! Donate some to people working hard to overthrow fascism in all our institutions. See links below
6. Feeling not fun but overwhelmed? Turn off the news, get off the internet, read a book

All hands on deck; don’t give up the ship!

We can’t wait to see you at the con!

No dress code but the wearing of all-black is not allowed. If you see anyone dressed like that breaking windows, that’s not antifa, we would NEVER dress alike, that’s fascist! Also, always carry your membership card.
