Confronting the Threat of the Far Right

3/21/2023

0 Comments

 
Trump lost the 2020 presidential election but the forces he represented and the ideas he furthered – the contemporary US right – have not gone away. These forces are continuing their efforts to push the US – both at in the electoral and the extra-parliamentary terrains – further towards their anti-democratic vision for the U.S.

 NPEC is sponsoring an upcoming zoom session, Confronting the Threat of the Far Right.   

Session date: April 3, 2023
Session time: 5 PM PT/8 PM ET
Three sets of questions will be addressed in this session:
 
  1. Who is the right, both electorally and in the larger cultural front?  What groups are the  most active?  What are the historical roots of the U.S. right?  How are these groups organized?  
  2. The “right” has several ideological strand and beliefs.  What are these differences?  Is it possible to exploit potential divisions between libertarians, white evangelical Christian nationalists, para-militarists, white supremacists, etc. and other segments the right?
  3. What should the broad left do to counter today’s right?  How should we organize and with what goals?  Where does DSA fit into in the effort to create a progressive counter-offensive to the right?
 
We will hear from and ask questions of Bill Fletcher, John Huntington, and Nancy McLean.  These three presenters have engaged with the US far right as analysts, organizers or both.  .  The presentations and discussion will help DSA members in our day-to-day organizing and will provide important context for our political thinking and work through the 2023 convention and beyond.
Join us on April 3.
