    Does anyone know of Antifa in the Northeastern U.S.? Specifically the Boston area?

    I found a link to a Boston branch of Antifa but it was bad.

    "The dictatorship of the proletariat, i.e., the organization of the vanguard of the oppressed as the ruling class for the purpose of suppressing the oppressors, cannot result merely in an expansion of democracy. Simultaneously with an immense expansion of democracy, which for the first time becomes democracy for the poor, democracy for the people, and not democracy for the money-bags, the dictatorship of the proletariat imposes a series of restrictions on the freedom of the oppressors, the exploiters, the capitalists. " -Vladimir Lenin

    "The People's democratic dictatorship needs the leadership of the working class. For it is only the working class that is most far-sighted, most selfless and most thoroughly revolutionary. The entire history of revolution proves that without the leadership of the working class revolution fails and that with the leadership of the working class revolution triumphs." -Mao Zedong

    Antifa is a Europe based initiative... ...theres a branch in the us?
    "How you cling to your purity, young man! How afraid you are to soil your hands! All right, stay pure! What good will it do? Why did you join us? Purity is an idea for a yogi or a monk. You intellectuals and Bourgeois anarchists use it as a pretext for doing nothing. To do nothing, to remain motionless, arms at your sides, wearing kids gloves. Well, I have dirty hands. Right up to the elbows. I've plunged them in the filth and blood. But what do you hope? Do you think you'll govern innocently?"
    -Jean-Paul Sartre

    He's probably referring to Northeastern Antifascists, an anti-fascist organization based mostly around Boston.
    You seem neat, but...

    They divide us by our color, they divide us by our tongue,
    They divide us men and women, they divide us old and young,
    But they'll tremble at our voices when they hear these verses sung,
    For the Union makes us strong!

    The Northeast Antifascists often refer to themselves as Antifa.

    Does anyone know how to contact them?

    I thought Antifa had almost no presence in the US. The facists in america aren't nearly as organized as they are in europe from my understanding.

    Fringe politics in the US, from the right OR the left, is a rare thing over here.

    America is a very conservative country. Our elections are Democrat vs Republican, with virtually nothing in between. Even conservative "independents" garner no more than 1% of the vote.
