Four and a half stars. Mostly as good as I thought it would be. I like that there were essays about antifascism from all different angles by different kinds of people. A couple of them blew my mind, a couple of them were so boring I couldn't finish, and most of them were good. Shane Burley does a lot of good stuff.

This book is great, here's why:

1. Shane Burley has been studying and writing about fascism for a little while now and he's amassed quite a well of knowledge. It's important, if we take the threat of white supremacy seriously (which we should), to know who our enemy is and try to figure out why they think like they do. Without this, there is no way to counter what they are doing. After finishing Why We Fight, I feel like I have a lot more knowledge than before.

2. Many intellectual writers tend to get wordy or annoyingly dense when trying to get their point across; other writers treat the reader like their an idiot. Burley write in a clear, concise way that allows him to get across a ton of digestible information in a minimal number of pages.

Read this book, read everything by Shane Burley, read every that AK Press has been coming out with!

it has nothing new or insightful to say abt fascism, and does not have particularly well-organized or insightful advice on practical antifa organizing, and it is not completely up-to-date. but it is an EXCELLENT reference for concrete examples of resistance in the US, including their specific actions and strategies, from ww2 up until recently
