Professor calls Antifa violence ‘vital’ form of ‘collective self-defense’



Defending Communist Terrorism
This bastard needs to be fired today
But he won't be


(Washington Times)  -  Dartmouth history professor Mark Bray is not backing down from his defense of self-proclaimed “anti-fascist” groups that bring baseball bats and other weapons to peaceful protests.
The author of “Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook” made waves during an Aug. 20 interview on “Meet the Press” in which he framed the physically confrontational tactics of black-clad collectivists as “confronting other forms of violence.” His employer distanced itself from his statements, but Mr. Bray stands by his words.
NBC News interviewed the history professor over the weekend for a better understanding of his position.
“It’s basically a politics or an activity of social revolutionary self defense. It’s a pan-left radical politics uniting communists, socialists, anarchists and various different radical leftists together for the shared purpose of combating the far right,” Mr. Bray said Saturday when asked to specifically define Antifa. 
Mr. Bray’s remarks came just over two weeks since 32-year-old Heather Heyer was killed during a “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Police arrested 20-year-old suspect Alex Fields Jr., after he accelerated his vehicle into a group of counter-protesters.
The professor was then pressed on what he means in his book when he says that violence perpetrated by Antifa represents a “small though vital sliver” of its activity.
