Ashley Dawson, Stopping Trump from Stealing Election; Carl Dix from Philadelphia


Ashley Dawson recently wrote, "There has been remarkably little discussion of how to stop Trump. In the face of open declarations of plans to overthrow the tattered remnants of democracy in this country, American exceptionalism seems to have lulled many people into a false sense of complacency that a coup cannot happen in the US." We'll talk about how people have stopped coups in other countries, and what people could do here. Ashley Dawson is professor of postcolonial studies at the City University of New York

Carl Dix is in the streets in Philadelphia, where people are protesting the attempts of Trump and his fascist followers to stop counting votes, which at this point are disproportionately from Black, Latinx and Native American voters. We'll talk about this, and the whole situation we're in.

Carl Dix is a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party, and a member of the Editorial Board of Refuse Fascism. He is a revolutionary who has been fighting against Trump's fascism, and organizing to drive out the Trump/Pence regime. 


From RefuseFascism - LA:

EMERGENCY!  ACT NOW TO OPPOSE TRUMP’S ATTEMPT TO STEAL THE ELECTION AND VIOLENTLY IMPOSE A FASCIST AMERICA ON THE WORLD!

Saturday, Nov. 7 @ 11 AM - Pershing Square, DTLA

Trump has been stealing the election and threatening violence for months, with all this rising to a crescendo in the days before the election. Now he claims victory demanding that the counting be stopped immediately – with millions of ballots yet to be counted, overwhelmingly from the urban cores where Black and Latino voters are concentrated!!

NO!  Trump’s demand is illegitimate, utterly racist, and would complete the theft of the election and the imposition of fascism.

Further: White supremacy is illegitimate.  Patriarchal theocracy is illegitimate.  FASCISM IS ILLEGITIMATE!

It is urgent – it is more important than ever — that we reject this, powerfully and in our masses, by taking the streets in nonviolent, creative, and determined action, sustained until this regime is gone and this nightmare is ended.

TRUMP/PENCE OUT NOW!
