Authors Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor are set to discuss strategies for resisting the rise of far-right ideology in an upcoming event in Bristol. The discussion, scheduled for September 28 from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at St Georges Bristol, will explore themes addressed in their new collaborative book, *End Times Fascism: And the Fight for the Living World*.
Klein and Taylor argue that far-right movements promote a form of survivalism rooted in supremacist beliefs, which they describe as a constructed crisis or “man-made Armageddon complex.” Their book and the accompanying event seek to challenge this prevailing narrative by offering alternatives grounded in unity and mutual reliance rather than division and dominance.
The event aims to engage the public in examining this ideological framework and to discuss collective approaches to countering what they characterize as an apocalyptic worldview. According to Klein and Taylor, the goal is to replace the pervasive end-times rhetoric with a vision that embraces belonging and interdependence.
Tickets for the conversation are available through online booking on the event organizer’s website or via a QR code provided with promotional materials. The event represents a part of broader efforts by the authors and like-minded activists to inspire political action against far-right extremism and environmental degradation, as outlined in their book.
