How do you fight an enemy in your midst? \u003cem\u003eWe Go Where They Go\u003c\/em\u003e recounts the thrilling story of a massive forgotten youth movement that set the stage for today's anti-fascist organising in North America.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen skinheads and punks in the late 1980s found their communities invaded by white supremacists and neo-nazis, they fought back. Influenced by anarchism, feminism, Black liberation, and Indigenous sovereignty, they created Anti-Racist Action. At ARA's height in the 1990s, thousands of dedicated activists in hundreds of chapters joined the fights—political and sometimes physical—against nazis, the Ku Klux Klan, anti-abortion fundamentalists, and racist police. Before media pundits, cynical politicians, and your uncle discovered \"antifa,\" Anti-Racist Action was bringing it to the streets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBased on extensive interviews with dozens of ARA participants, \u003cem\u003eWe Go Where They Go\u003c\/em\u003e tells ARA's story from within, giving voice to those who risked their safety in their own defence and in solidarity with others.
