Book Launch: Confronting the Resurgent Right

Thursday, May 28 / 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

Join us for the launch of Confronting the Resurgent Right. Scholars and activists take Canada’s 2022 “Freedom Convoy” as a recent manifestation of deep-rooted extremism and provide intersectional commentary on the resurgence of the political right, demonstrating how its ideology permeates and shapes the structures of our society.

With evidence-based research, and careful analysis of the genesis and methods of the right, contributors to this volume model pathways of resistance and charge us with our most urgent collective tasks: finding ways to work together, building coalitions in civil society, and exposing and countering the regressive forces that spew hate.

The evening features a panel discussion about the book’s themes with the editor, Miriam Edelson, and contributors Peter Smith, Tim McCaskell, Judy Rebick and John Cartwright followed by Q&A.
