Ecofascism. It’s real, and it’s dangerous. It’s a term that describes how environmentalism is leveraged to justify fascist violence against marginalized peoples, including Black, Indigenous, people of color, immigrants, LGBTQ+ folks, disabled folks, poor folks, and more. While our movements continue to do the significant work of stopping the bad on all fronts, ecofascists are making headway on the political front by codifying their hate: violent attacks on gender identity and expression, seizing reproductive rights, rolling back voting rights, challenging tribal sovereignty, controlling how histories are taught in schools, in addition to the ongoing vilification and physical violence against Black and Indigenous peoples.
We know that our best defense is organizing and continuing to build the good. AND meanwhile, we cannot let ecofascist threats become blank spots. We must actively coordinate in our organizing to neutralize ecofascist ideas. One way to do that is to study up, together.
Join Quinton Sankofa of Movement Generation with our guest presenter Hilary Moore, political educator and co-author of No Fascist USA!, for a webinar on ecofascism on March 28 at 3:30pm PST / 6:30pm EST.

Ecofascismo – Existe y es un peligro en crecimiento. Ecofascismo es un término que describe cómo algunos aprovechan el ambientalismo para justificar la violencia fascista contra los pueblos marginados, comunidades negras, indígenas, personas de color, inmigrantes, personas LGBTQ +, personas discapacitadas, personas pobres y más. Mientras nuestros movimientos continúan trabajando para frenar lo dañino en muchos frentes, los ecofascistas continúan codificando su odio y avanzando en el frente político: con ataques violentos contra la identidad y expresión de género, apoderándose de los derechos reproductivos, haciendo retroceder los derechos al voto universal, desafiando la soberanía indígena, controlando cómo se enseña la historia en las escuelas, además de la difamación continua y la violencia física contra los pueblos negros e indígenas.
Sabemos que nuestra mejor defensa es organizarnos y continuar construyendo lo positivo. Sin embargo, no podemos permitir que las amenazas ecofascistas continúen creciendo. Debemos coordinar activamente para neutralizar las ideas ecofascistas. Estudiemos juntos, para tomar pasos hacia ese objetivo.
Únase a Quinton Sankofa de Movement Generation y a nuestra invitada Hilary Moore, educadora política y coautora de No Fascist USA!, para un seminario vitual sobre ecofascismo el 28 de marzo a las 15:30 pm PST / 18:30 pm EST.
