As riots and protests broke out in the aftermath of Donald Trump's election, the United States' first neo-fascist president, Luis Enrique Marquez found himself re-catapulted into the role of an antifascist activist in Portland, Oregon.

For the first time, readers are on the inside antifascism looking out.
