The movie maps the evolution of the Czech antifascist movement since the late 1980’s up to 2011. The footage takes the viewer through the period of the first racist murders in the early 90’s, to the protests against the Sládek’s Republicans, clashes with racist hooligans and National Resistance, up to the recent anti-Roma demonstrations. The footage is completed with commentaries and memories of both academics and activists.

On Saturday, January 10th 2015 Phil Africa, revolutionary, John Africa’s First Minister of Defense, and beloved brother, husband and father, passed away under suspicious circumstances at the State Correctional Institution at Dallas, PA. On Sunday, January 4th Phil Africa wasn’t feeling well and went to the prison infirmary. Though he wasn’t feeling well, other inmates saw Phil Africa walking, stretching and doing jumping jacks. Hearing that Phil was in the infirmary MOVE members drove up to visit him and were denied a visit by the prison. While they were visiting with Delbert Africa, Phil was secretly transported to Wilkes Barre General Hospital where he was held in total isolation, incommunicado for five days.

Justice for Mike Brown, Eric Garner, Brandon Tate-Brown, and all victims of Killer Cops! Defend Our Movement from Repression!
Ferguson stood up and resisted the murder of Mike Brown, and youth all around the country stood up and answered the call. But now the police are fighting back with a public witch-hunt as well as the harassment and arrest on trumped-up charges of TMOC and other organizers around the country for taking a stand against police murder in NYC.
We talk back. We turn up. We stand tall. With Ferguson-for Brandon, for every black body in America robbed of its right to live- for every injustice that we are growing sick and tired of. We are done with your police/media slander campaigns.
Mike Brown is still dead.
Darren Wilson is still free.
The Grand Jury was a sham.
We’re still mad!
We’re still demanding justice!
We are sick with anger.
It is too late for containing it.
Not another. Not another. Not one more.
We will turn down for nothing until justice is OURS!
Hands Up – Fight Back!

Jordan is a 26 year old Hudson Valley NY resident, musician, naturalist, anarchist and environmental activist…
On August 23rd Jordan was arrested while attending a demonstration in solidarity with those protesting in Ferguson, MO following the murder of Michael Brown. He was shot with a taser gun, tackled to the ground, arrested, and non-consensually brought to the hospital for injuries that the police had inflicted. He has since been slapped with a large emergency room bill, and he is also being forced to pay $1,500 in other fees.
We have been making every effort to fundraise for Jordan and have already raised some money. However, we still have a large amount left to raise. Please help us out to whatever extent you are able! If you would prefer to mail a check, please contact us for a mailing address. Thank you!

Updated 1/8/2015: We at Antifa Philadelphia are happy to announce that the show has been cancelled. Apparently the attention drawn to the show by Antifascists was picked up on by several local media outlets, which led to the Mayor Nutter’s office calling the Outlaws directly and asking them to cancel the show, citing safety concerns.

The explosive rise in the U.S. incarceration rate in the second half of the twentieth century, and the racial transformation of the prison population from mostly white at mid-century to sixty-five percent black and Latino in the present day, is a trend that cannot easily be ignored. Many believe that this shift began with the “tough on crime” policies advocated by Republicans and southern Democrats beginning in the late 1960s, which sought longer prison sentences, more frequent use of the death penalty, and the explicit or implicit targeting of politically marginalized people. In The First Civil Right, Naomi Murakawa inverts the conventional wisdom by arguing that the expansion of the federal carceral state-a system that disproportionately imprisons blacks and Latinos-was, in fact, rooted in the civil-rights liberalism of the 1940s and early 1960s, not in the period after.

Philly Fights Alongside Ferguson
“We’re also interested in taking steps toward creating a collective memory of opposing the state, white supremacy, patriarchy and capital that focuses on our ability to revolt and fight instead of seeking out narratives that prioritize our victimhood within the system.”
