Antifascist

When Donald Trump was elected, the streets of Portland ignited - and Luis Enrique Marquez was there. Antifascist is a gripping, firsthand account of one of the most turbulent chapters in modern American protest history. From standing off with far-right extremists and militarized police to organizing mass actions like Occupy ICE, Marquez offers an unflinching, personal look at what it means to resist fascism in the streets - and at what it costs.

This is not a theoretical book about activism. It is not a think piece from the sidelines. This is a memoir written in the smoke of flashbangs and the shadow of surveillance, from someone who risked everything to stop authoritarianism from taking root.

Inside you'll find:

• The raw truth about Portland's protest movement - beyond what the media showed
• Eyewitness accounts of Proud Boy violence and state repression
• The inside story of Occupy ICE, May Day, and more
• Personal struggles with betrayal, burnout, and being publicly smeared
• A roadmap of resistance - flawed, painful, but real

If you've ever marched, shouted, been afraid, or wondered what it's really like behind the mask - this book is for you.

Whether you're a seasoned activist, a student of social movements, or simply someone trying to understand what the hell happened in Portland - Antifascist will challenge you, move you, and stay with you.
