During the first 2020 Presidential Debate, President Trump refused to denounce White supremacy and instead told far-right group the Proud Boys to "stand back and stand by," once again mobilizing his militant base.
Updated 8.11.20: PRA and Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights (IREHR) have created a map as a resource for activists, journalists and researchers, to place the threat of the far-right showing up at racial justice protests.
As the U.S. engages in a long overdue national conversation on law enforcement’s role in upholding White supremacy, PRA has mapped the significant influence of far-right and anti-immigrant networks on county sheriffs.
To keep our movements safe, we all need to better understand who these paramilitaries are, what threats they pose, and what to do when they are present.
On May 14, 2020, PRA convened a colloquium on Building the Cultural and Political Power of Prochoice Religious Communities to discuss strategic opportunities and challenges in advancing reproductive freedom.
