HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!!!

antifaintl@kolektiva.social

Eleven years ago this month, some anti-fascists on Tumblr wrote to each other to put together a collective account dedicated to reporting on anti-fascist activities around the world, supporting anti-fascists, and promoting the tenets of anti-fascism however they could.

Since June 2014, Antifa International has expanded to reach over 142,000 people every month across nine different social media platforms. In that time, we've also raised tens of thousands of dollars to help anti-fascist crews around the world to fund their work fighting hate.

We've also put together some projects of international anti-fascist collaboration that we're especially proud of. This June also marks the 10th anniversary of The International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund, which we started in 2015 to provide emergency support to anti-fascists facing real trouble as a direct result of their anti-fascist work. Over the past decade, the Defence Fund has doled out more than $270,000USD to help out over 800 anti-fascists in 26 different countries.

Then there's The International Day of Solidarity with Anti-Fascist Prisoners - every July 25th we call on anti-fascists around the world to show solidarity with our comrades who've been locked up for the "crime" of standing against bigotry and fascism. We accept contributions for anti-fascist prisoners and their families year 'round and very July 25th we make sure they receive those funds, to help make their lives a bit easier while they're serving time.

We also maintain the Death To Fascism website as a place anti-fascists can find resources and materials to help them in their work. Artwork, flyers, 'zines, how-to guides - it's all their for you to read, download, print, and share!

We do all of this (and more) on a strictly unpaid, unfunded, volunteer basis. You could too! There are lots of things you can do to promote and support anti-fascism! In fact, here's a list of 30 antifa actions you could choose from to start with. Don't like any of those ideas? Then here are 40 more!

If you'd like to help us celebrate our birthday(s), take an antifascist action this month and dedicate it to us! Or make a donation to the International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund! Or to the Anti-Fascist Prisoner Support Fund! Or support a specific antifa crew by picking up one of their shirts!
