Synopsis

AMERICA IS IN TROUBLE. THE ANTI-FASCISTS ARE HERE TO HELP.

There is an underground war raging across America that many never see.

On one side, there are those building, like the Ku Klux Klan before them, an ‘invisible empire’ that would overthrow democracy. Concealing their identities not with white hoods but with usernames and avatars, they work at your local police department, teach at your local school, preach from behind the church pulpit, and cast votes at city hall.

On the other side are everyday Americans determined to drag this new invisible empire from its ‘hidden realm’. Americans who have lost faith in the institutions meant to protect them, compelled to step outside the confines of the law – committing acts of violence, sabotage, and espionage – to destroy an enemy they believe will ultimately destroy us all.

Most Americans don’t understand what antifa really is. Nor have they listened when antifa sounded the alarm about these white supremacists taking positions of power. Now these underground militant anti-fascists are determined to stop the rising tide of fascism in America. By any means necessary.

To Catch a Fascist follows different factions of anti-fascists as they work against the clock to expose white supremacists before they can make their violent fantasies a reality. With searing detail and exclusive reporting, seasoned journalist Christopher Mathias paints a vivid picture of the stakes in this often-unseen battle, highlighting the scrappy resourcefulness of antifa against their increasingly emboldened adversaries. Utilising razor-sharp storytelling and eye-opening insight, this timely book is both a call to action and a pulse-raising look at the remarkable work being done to combat today’s gravest threat to democracy.

‘A thoughtful, urgent, and tightly researched exploration of anti-fascism in America.’
TALIA LAVIN, author of Wild Faith and Culture Warlords

‘Reads like a spy thriller ... Both a gripping read and one that’s more urgent than ever.’
WILL SOMMER, author of Trust the Plan
