Last Born In The Wilderness

Spencer Sunshine is a researcher, journalist, activist, and political consultant regarding far-right movements. We discuss the recent events in Charlottesville, Virginia, where a collection of various loosely affiliated white nationalist groups, along with elements of the so-called "Alt-Right," attempted to produce a cohesive platform to unite under. Spencer was on the ground in Charlottesville, and he elaborates on what took place during the Unite The Right rally, as well as it's counter-protest, which he was a part of. Spencer puts the events in Charlottesville and its fallout in context, elaborating on the points brought up in his recent piece, Has the "Alt-Right" Met Its Gettysburg? published in Truthout. Spencer also goes over the much maligned and misunderstood antifa, or antifascist movement, and provides much needed context on what the movement really is and does as a movement. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/spencer-sunshine // Sustain + support: https://www.pa
