With over four decades of deep insight into the Far Right, we watch as the Trump administration explicitly pushes through the agendas of overlapping and intersecting Far Right movements and their antidemocratic ideologies working in tandem with unchecked corporate greed. But amidst the chaos of executive blitzkrieg and the teetering edge of constitutional crisis, we can make sense of the larger, long term goals of those in power.

Today, a nomination hearing is being held for Mike Huckabee to assume the mantle of U.S. ambassador to Israel. Huckabee is a documented Christian Zionist who will bring his end times antisemitism to President Trump’s declared project to turn Gaza into an ethnically-cleansed beach resort strip.

Just last week, President Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education, a long-held goal of rabid proponents of mandated Christian education and capitalists looking for new arenas for privatization.

Mahmoud Khalil’s continued detention, the attempted arrest of fellow student Yunseo Chung, and the capitulation of Columbia University are high profile examples of a neo-McCarthyism predicated on the weaponization of antisemitism and a clear sign of authoritarian state-making.

In a direct appeal to his anti-immigrant base, President Trump’s administration ignored a court order and any kind of due process when 238 unnamed Venezuelans residing in the United States were alleged to be gang members, detained by ICE, and deported to a notorious maximum-security prison in El Salvador where they remain, beyond reach of advocates and loved ones, today. This move reinforces the utility of anti-immigrant rhetoric and action in maintaining populist support, amidst a potent context of economic uncertainty and democratic dismantling.

To maintain a strategic focus on the overlapping and intersecting Far Right movements that comprise the Trump administration, PRA is hosting two separate panel discussions this week on:

1. the role of the Hindu Right in the administration and the multiracial Far Right more broadly tomorrow, Thursday; and

2. the threats and opportunities posed by the growing influence of the New Apostolic Reformation, the Christian Right’s reigning theocratic movement, this Friday.

Join us for these important conversations.

Countering Hindu Supremacy and the Multiracial Far Right Amidst the Authoritarian Onslaught: A PRA and Savera Briefing

We're facing an unprecedented authoritarian resurgence, with attacks on all our communities, a blatant executive power grab, and similar far-right blueprints being used across the world. But fear, while legitimate, will only serve to immobilize us. Our path forward needs sharp, nuanced analysis, and a unified path forward grounded in empowerment and hope.

In this webinar, we'll answer questions like:



• Why are some communities of color moving into this authoritarian coalition (what scholars call a 'multiracial far right’)?
• What is the Hindu supremacist movement, in India and then in the US? What is its relationship to the broader US far right, and why is it aligning itself ever closer to the MAGA coalition, celebrating the likes of Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy and Kash Patel?
• What role are Hindu supremacists and likely to play in the ongoing multi-pronged MAGA onslaught? How are actors in the multiracial far right leveraging their status as minorities to attack civil rights gains and divide our coalitions?

We’ll also talk about:

• Where the far right, in contrast to a lot of public messaging, is internally divided
• What should we be prepared for in the coming months
• How we can build our collective power

Panelists include:

• Dan HoSang - Professor of American Studies, Yale University
• Harman Singh - Executive Director, Sikh Coalition
• Prachi Patankar - An anti-caste and feminist writer and organizer
• Pranay Somayajula - Director of Organizing and Advocacy, Hindus for Human Rights

This will be an interactive briefing, so bring your thoughts, your ideas, and questions!

Note: This webinar requires registration and will be monitored for security purposes.
