Recognizing and resisting fascism and tyranny.

In this first year of Trump's occupation of the White House, organizers, activists, and compassionate human beings have ran ourselves ragged trying to put out one fire after another.  Each week, sometimes each day, the news is worse than the day before, as if the bottom has fallen away.

According to Martin Mycielski, that's not an accident.  

Join Lyn and Ani for a discussion of  an Alternet Article called Increasingly a Necessity:  A 15-point guide for surviving authoritarianism, by Martin Mycielski and Kalli Holloway.  We'll also re-visit an article from the Dallas Morning News, called What You- yes you- Can do to Save America from Tyranny, by Timothy Snyder. How can people in the U$ use lessons from around the world to be better strategists in our resistance to a fascist takeover?
