The wave of racist attacks in Britain, the growing support for parties like the AfD in Germany or National Rally in France, the whirlwind of chaos following Trump coming back to office – all this has many asking: are we heading toward fascism? This talk will look at the rise of fascism to power in the 1920’s and 1930’s, to answer the questions: what is fascism? How do we fight the right wing? And where is the world heading?
