	"description": "PANEL: What Everyone Should Know about Resisting State Repression WHERE: First Unitarian Church of Oakland; 685 14th St, Oakland, CA  WHEN: Sunday, October 26th at 7pm; Doors open at 6:30pm Join us on October 26th at 7pm for a panel on resisting state repression. The panel will feature journalist and author Will Potter, and other panelists TBA. President Trump has designated the anti-fascist movement as a terrorist organization. While, in fact, it’s an opportunity for his administration to target and destroy a broader network of left and progressive groups. We’re living in challenging times with crises around war in the Middle East, renewed McCarthyist attacks on free speech, corporate domination of everyday life, escalating climate disasters and, now, a fascist takeover of our government. As Will Potter has said, “The intention is to capitalize on this to crack down on their opponents and to consolidate authoritarian power.” We’re also living in a time where large numbers of people have taken to the streets to confront those responsible for these crises. Today’s state repression is aimed to eliminate that opposition. This panel will explore the ongoing conflict between democratic resistance movements and state repression and lessons that we can use to push back against this authoritarian takeover. Bio// Will Potter is an award-winning investigative journalist and TED Senior Fellow who exposes political repression and the erosion of civil liberties. His reporting and commentary have appeared in The Washington Post, Foreign Policy, and Rolling Stone. He is the author of “Green is the New Red” and his new book is “Little Red Barns: Hiding The Truth, From Farm To Fable.” Other Panelists TBA. **Donations on a $5-20 sliding scale, no one turned away for lack of funds. Co-sponsored by Green and Red Podcast, Diablo Rising Tide and Oil and Gas Action Network.",
