Refuse Fascism helped kick off Rise Up For Abortion Rights (riseup4abortionrights.org) yesterday in Washington, D.C. (Common Dreams coverage). Get involved in this initiative and help plan protests around the country starting immediately and growing into this spring - register for the Zoom organizing conference January 30, 2 - 4pm Eastern here.

This week, Sam interviews author and investigative reporter Kathryn Joyce on the power of ideology in the fascist movement; especially how and why Hungary is a model for the GOP. Follow Joyce on Twitter at @kathrynajoyce and find more of her work at kathrynjoyce.com. Read her recent piece for Salon: "Parental rights" started on the Christian fringe — now it's the GOP's winning issue and for The New Republic: The New Right’s Grim, Increasingly Popular Fantasies of an International Nationalism.
