Summary

Trump’s private police has used Portland as a testing ground for the rest of the country. Turns out, the city has long been the testing ground for white nationalist violence and complicity from police. And residents have had enough. Journalist Arun Gupta (Daily Beast, Guardian, Intercept) joins Francesca and guest Matt Lieb to talk about the origins of Portland's anti-fascist movement, and what weeks of repression from DHS thugs has accomplished. Spoiler: *everyone* is now an anti-fascist. Featuring: Arun Gupta (@arunindy) Matt Lieb (@mattlieb) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
