Catalyst Project invites you to an urgent, practical conversation on how white organizers can respond to the authoritarian threats of this moment. Mobilizing White People for the Anti-Fascist Fight moves beyond naming the danger: it equips us to build the broad, multiracial front necessary to defeat it.
Featured speakers:
❤️ Suzanne Pharr — Southern q***r feminist, founder of the Women’s Project, co-founder of Southerners On New Ground (SONG), and former director of the Highlander Center, with fifty years of strategic anti-racist and LGBTQ liberation work.
🧡 Gopal Dayaneni — Co-founder of Movement Generation: Justice & Ecology Project; a veteran organizer and trainer who weaves climate, labor, and racial-justice struggles into transformative, broad-front strategy.
💛 Beth Howard — Appalachia Peoples Union Director for Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) and forthcoming Haymarket author of Rednecks for Black Lives, organizing majority-white bases in the South toward cross-racial, working-class solidarity.
💚 Morgan Bassichis — NYC-based comedian, writer, and Jewish Voice for Peace leader whose “fiercely hilarious” performances merge radical Jewish politics with sharp anti-racist critique.
Why attend?
✅ Shift from fear to action. Hear stories of white people taking principled risks—and learn how you can too.
✅ Stand on an important legacy. Trace the through-line of white anti-racist organizing to today’s frontline anti-racist organizers.
✅ Build a true “broad front” against fascism. Learn the specific skills, coalition practices, and partnerships that turn moral clarity into mass power.
Grounded in strategic hope and disciplined solidarity, this session will deepen our collective skills against racism, capitalism, and rising authoritarianism.
📅 July 1, 3:00 – 5:00 PM Pacific / 6:00 – 8:00 PM Eastern
