Summary
Authors Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor say that not only is fascism here, but this 21st century version wants apocalyptic collapse. In their new book “End Times Fascism,” Klein and Taylor examine how politicians, religious prophets and Silicon Valley billionaires are trying to wipe out flora and fauna, undermine human solidarity and block our ability to imagine a future on Earth. But they also say that it’s not too late for us to fight this “end times fascism” — for the sake of our world. Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor join us on Forum.
