The rise of facism around me is terrifying but I'm only 17 and not physically or mentally healthy enough to go out and protest, I don't know how to help. I try to spread info but my blog is very small. Do you have any ideas on ways I can assist? I can't just sit here while tyranny crushes the American people.

We hear you, Anon - it’s been terrifying for all of us.  But it’s also been empowering to see how many people are willing to step up and do what needs to be done to fight it!

First off: we don’t see age as a barrier to doing anti-fascist work.  In fact, being young can often be a real advantage!  Most of us started doing this stuff when we were still in high school or younger, tbh.

The good news is that most antifa work doesn’t involve being on the frontlines all the time!  There is tons & tons of stuff you can do besides that.

Here are some general tips we gave a while back about starting to do antifa stuff as a minor.  

Here are some ideas we had about starting an antifa student club at your school.

Here’s our list of 30 antifa actions you & a couple of friends could probably take on + Showing Up For Racial Justice’s list of 40 actions to fight nazis.

Let us know what you get up to, ok?
