3. Rebuilding Left Power Library

Fascism in America is not an academic exercise, but a clear and present danger. It must be buried in the graveyard of history.

Almost exactly a century ago, Benito Mussolini and his army of goons marched on Rome, plunged Italy into fascism and set the stage for the horrors of Nazi rule across much of Europe in the coming decades. This anniversary would be nothing but a distressing mark on the calendar if not for what voters in...

How long can politicians avoid real talk about how globalization has failed the middle class?

Coca-Cola killed trade unionists in Latin America. General Motors built vehicles known to catch fire. Tobacco companies suppressed cancer research. And Boeing knew that its planes were dangerous. Corporations don't care if they kill people — as long as it's profitable.

As state power is reluctantly and belatedly deployed against the far-right’s laughably named Freedom Convoy, it’s time for the political left in Canada to ask itself some very serious questions. How could a gaggle of white supremacists manage to capture the political momentum and undertake “the biggest protest organized by the Canadian far-right since the 1930s”?

In a recent piece for The Breach, writer and organizer Emma Jackson calls for an “expansive left populism” to defeat the far-right. While she identifies many of the fronts on which the left must fight, it remains unclear how populism as such should serve as a working program for broad left demands, given its susceptibility to the politics of reaction.

Similar "freedom convoys" have appeared in other parts of the world that have imposed strict covid restrictions.

The left should seek to employ the disruptive power on display in protests in Canada — but only on its own anti-racist, antifascist terms.
