Refuse Fascism is a U.S.-based anti-fascist coalition organization, composed of leftists, liberals, intellectuals, artists, and activists including members of the Revolutionary Communist Party. Until the 2020 United States presidential election, it was characterized by its call for the removal of the first Trump administration by non-violent street protests. After the 2020 election, it counter-demonstrated at a series of pro-Trump events. During Trump’s second term, Refuse Fascism has returned to its call for the removal of Trump by peaceful means. The organization has conducted protests against Trump’s immigration policies, executive order on birthright citizenship, bombing of Iran, opposition to gender affirming care and use of military for domestic purposes. In its “Statement of Unity and Principles,” Refuse Fascism encouraged solidarity with all organizations and individuals wanting to peacefully stop Trump and his policies.
