Antifa in America: The Truth Behind the Mask

Antifa has become one of the most polarizing forces in modern American politics. Labelled by critics as a violent extremist group and by supporters as anti-fascist defenders, its true identity lies somewhere between the headlines and the chaos in the streets. But where did Antifa come from, and how did it rise to prominence in the 21st century?
In this episode, we trace Antifa's ideological roots back to pre-WWII Europe, where militant resistance groups first confronted fascist movements. We explore how those ideals evolved over decades and crossed into the U.S., merging with elements of anarchism, socialism, and direct-action activism. The video examines major flashpoints—from Berkeley to Portland—and how Antifa’s decentralized structure complicates efforts to define or confront it.
Through investigative reporting, protest footage, and historical context, we break down how Antifa operates, what it believes, and the implications of labeling it a domestic terror threat. Is Antifa a legitimate resistance to authoritarianism—or a threat to civil discourse and public safety? Watch to decide for yourself.
