Haymarket Books Blood Red Lines: How Nativism Fuels the Right
Featuring a New Foreword "An important contribution to the political debate over immigration." —The New Republic In Blood Red Lines, journalist Brendan O’Connor investigates the recent history and politics of U.S. nativism, from the dark money-funded think tanks to the militant reactionaries doing battle with antifascists in the streets. As O’Connor argues, a new ideology is emerging, “border fascism,” one that any movement for working class liberation will need to reckon with in the struggles to come.

Haymarket Books Blood Red Lines: How Nativism Fuels the Right
An engaging and reflective look at how austerity and the billionaire class paved the way for Trump's presidency, the rise of the "alt-right," and the caging of migrants children and adults in detention centers across the country. For all of the energy that the far right has demonstrated-and for all of the support that they receive from institutional conservatives in the GOP and affiliated organizations-the United States is experiencing an upsurge in left-wing social movements unlike any other in the past half-century, with roots not in the Democratic Party but Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter. Drawing on his original reporting as well as archival research, O'Connor investigates how the capitalist class and the radical right mobilize racism to defend their interests, while focusing on one of the most pressing issues of our time: immigration.
