Empowering targeted communities

Communities that are targeted by far-right extremists may feel fear, powerlessness and frustration. Many survivors of far-right violence are still fighting for justice. How can we empower these communities and give them a voice? (Video, 2 minutes).

Published:

The FREE Initiative (Far-Right Extremism in Europe Initiative) has produced a series of short films to showcase the tactics and methods taken by those tackling far-right extremism across Europe. Hear the stories of those who are on the streets having the hard conversations with far-right activists, those who have rid entire towns of neo-Nazi gangs, and those who have pushed hundreds of violent extremists to leave the scene. Listen to the stories of survivors of far-right violence, who share their stories to prevent attacks like this from happening again.

Films directed by: Rino Pucci and Marcos Villasenor
Music: Simon Porter.
