Hey there John,
Right now, we are seeing fascism in the streets of American cities. Donald Trump is deploying ICE and the National Guard into our cities to terrorize immigrants and repress his critics. He’s hoping for a flashpoint moment that can be used to justify an even more authoritarian crackdown. This is textbook fascism.
We’ve been here before. From Standing Rock to Line 3, water protectors, environmental activists, and climate organizers have faced historic brutality at the hands of police and federal officers.
That’s why we’re organizing a youth movement to fight back against this authoritarian overreach, before it’s too late for our democracy. We’re holding four regional trainings across the country, where we train young people on the skills they need to organize their schools and communities to fight back against fascism.
In solidarity,
Team Sunrise
