Tune into this interview by Out-FM’s Bob Lederer with two longtime writers for the blog ThreeWay Fight ( http://threewayfight.blogspot.com/ ) who have closely studied the far right, Matthew Lyons and Xloi. Last week, we brought you Part 1 of our interview with two progressive journalists who are experts on the far right in this country, looking at what the January 6th violent assault on the Capitol Building revealed about the sometimes conflicting factions on the right. On Tuesday night we bring you the second and final part of this interview.
The Capitol attack of course aimed to stop the certification of Biden’s election. It left 5 people dead and scores injured. It spotlighted the far right, a movement that has been steadily building in this country for decades. From from months of murderous attacks last year against the Black Lives Matter and related movements, these far right groups, including Proud Boys, the OathKeepers, QAnon, and others – all of them strongly white supremacist, with some waving Confederate flags -- were heavily involved in the January 6th assault on the Capitol.

He is the author of Insurgent Supremacists: The U.S. Far Right's Challenge to State and Empire (2018, Kersplebedeb and PM Press), co-author with Chip Berlet of Right-Wing Populism in America (2000, Guilford Press), and a regular contributor to the radical antifascist blog Three Way Fight.
