Private Info on Traditionalist Youth Network Released

Thomas Buhls of TYN
Earlier today we received an email circulating the internet that includes information on the Traditionalst Youth Network (TYN). We had originally intended to do our own post detailing TYN's politics and the players involved, but it looks like now we won't have to.

Taken from pastebin:
The Traditionalist Youth Movement (TYN) is a white supremacist and self identified fascist organization based out of Indiana. The groups mission is to provide resources and support to independent groups of high school and college students  about the "traditional" school of thought. They have attended several white nationalist events this year. The Leif Erickson day parade, an NSM rally, and the American Freedom Party conference, to name a few. Private details on their core membership and others can be found below.

Philly Antifa Join the TORCH Network

Taken from the TORCH network:

The TORCH network is proud to announce that we are adding a chapter to our ranks. A very active chapter at that. Welcome to the team, Philly Antifa! 

http://phillyantifa.wordpress.com:

"Philly Antifa are anti-authoritarians. We do not work with the state or any groups/individuals who seek to “reign us in” or otherwise control us. We do seek meaningful partnerships and alliances with groups and individuals we feel are working towards similar aims."

We can be reached at PhillyAntifascists@gmail.com

More KKK Fliers Have Arrived in the Suburbs of Illinois

More KKK fliers have arrived. This time it's in Tinley Park, IL, the same place where a white supremacist event, organized by Beckie Williams, was brutally shut down by antifascists at the Ashford house restaurant in May of 2012. Tinley Patch claims it's the Traditionalist American Knights of the KKK who left these fliers, but all signs point to it being the Loyal White Knights of the KKK, the same group that fliered months back in a New Lenox township. Without taking on too many assumptions, and without downplaying this groups potential, we strongly consider the possibility that this is a very small group of individuals attempting to inflate their numbers by appearing as if they already have. Only time will tell.


Taken from the Huffington post:

Police in Tinley Park, a suburb of Chicago, are investigating fliers promoting actions of the Ku Klux Klan that were found in several driveways throughout the town, according to NBC Chicago and the Chicago Tribune.

“You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake!” the fliers said, according to the Tribune.

To see a picture of the fliers from Patch, go here.

Police told the Tribune the distribution of the fliers -- which were accompanied by candy canes -- was a "suspicious circumstance." Authorities are investigating the group listed on the fliers, which Patch reports is the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

Similar fliers were found in another Chicago suburb, New Lenox Township, in October. Those fliers said "Save Our Land Join The Klan" and offered a number to a Klan-run hotline with a North Carolina area code.

In November, Klan fliers that said "Our Race Is Our Nation" were found in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, a historically black neighborhood, and Rockledge, Florida.

Introducing the Torch Network; An Antifascist Network

It is with both great excitement and some sadness that we introduce TORCH, an anti-fa network. Out of the old Anti-Racist Action Network rises a new, militant anti-fascist network. This isn’t a fracture or schism coming from internal strife but the result of the realization that the blueprint laid out in a time before the internet no longer serves as a sufficient model for combating fascism. We acknowledge that many of our comrades have lost much, some their lives, under the banner of ARA. Their sacrifices will not be forgotten and their fight is still our fight. Because of changes in the current political climate as well as our own political development, our understanding of what fascism is and how it relates to other political entities such as the working class, capital, and the state has evolved. We wanted to build a new network that fit our needs and politics. One that is more relevant and appealing to a new generation of anti-fascists.

We are still on the prowl. We will still continue to expose, confront, and act. Fascist beware… we are TORCH.

TORCH Points of Unity:

1. We disrupt fascist and far right organizing and activity.

2. We don’t rely on the cops or courts to do our work for us. This doesn’t mean we never go to court, but the cops uphold white supremacy and the status quo. They attack us and everyone who resists oppression. We must rely on ourselves to protect ourselves and stop the fascists.

3. We oppose all forms of oppression and exploitation. We intend to do the hard work necessary to build a broad, strong movement of oppressed people centered on the working class against racism, sexism, nativism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, and discrimination against the disabled, the oldest, the youngest, and the most oppressed people. We support abortion rights and reproductive freedom. We want a classless, free society. We intend to win!

4. We hold ourselves accountable personally and collectively to live up to our ideals and values.

5. We not only support each other within the network, but we also support people outside the network who we believe have similar aims or principles. An attack against one is an attack against all.

David Irving Shut Down in Chicago By Antifas Again!

After posting our initial call to action for a phone jam, It gives us great pleasure to announce that David Irving was once again shut down in Chicago by antifascists. After receiving the email attached below and calling Dine restaurant it has been confirmed that the venue has decided to cancel his speech. Thank you to all who participated in the phone jam, thank you to Dine for shutting this event down, and shout out to those who sent us this...

Sent from an email:

In the wee hours of December 7th 2013, antifascists smashed the windows of Dine restaurant, the hosting space for David Irvings Chicago stop on his tour, successfully bringing the event to an end!

From David Irving:


Saturday, 7 December 2013 11:28AM


Unhappy news: I must postpone this evening's dinner function at Chicago's Dine, the restaurant we had chosen, out of concern for the safety of my guests. This morning the establishment came under attack from the traditional enemies of free speech, and the management notified me at ten a.m. today that they cancel the booking. (I have phoned our many guests coming from out of state to avoid their making an unnecessary journey before they get this email.) They will not have to look far to wonder why Jews are so unpopular.

See: http://southsideantifa.blogspot.com/2013/12/phone-jam-holocaust-denier-david-irving.html

for why the restaurant cancelled the booking. There is an unsavory element of hired thugs in Chicago, who seem not to have learned the lesson from what happened to their friends, the Edelweiss and Tinley Park thugs, who are now languishing in federal prison in consequence.

Unless you can suggest an alternative secure location, I do not think it will be possible to reorganise it securely in time today. The personal comfort of my bona fide guests is my prime concern.

I shall postpone the dinner to my forthcoming 2014 tour in a few weeks' time. Your payment will be good for that function, and I will closely review the list of invited guests first. See:

http://southsideantifa.blogspot.com/2013/12/phone-jam-holocaust-denier-david-irving.html

for the reason why.

If you were a bona fide attendee, I will refund your payment if you wish, as that is our policy.

Phone Jam! Holocaust Denier David Irving Speaking In Chicago Today

An update 12/07/13: It gives us great pleasure to announce that David Irving was once again shut down in Chicago by antifascists. After receiving the email attached below and calling Dine restaurant it has been confirmed that the venue has decided to cancel his speech. Read more here. Thanks to Dine restaurant for cancelling.

Taken from onepeoplesproject:
Every year the Holocaust denier and Hitler apologist David Irving comes out to the US from the UK, and attempts to hold meetings and talks to promote his notion that the Nazis were just misunderstood and they didn’t really kill over 11 million innocent people, six million of them the Jews they hated so much.  This year, he is going around the country extolling the virtues of Adolf Hitler!?
Irving has received resistance at his past speaking engagements. When Irving came to Chicago in 2009, antifascists physically disrupted the event, successfully shutting it down. Since then, Irving charges close to 100 dollars a seat when he speaks in Chicago and uses strict security measures, including attendee investigation and booking ritzy hotels and restaurants like the Drake in 2011 and Dine this year.

Once again, despite his security precautions, Chicago antifascists have gained access to the hosting location for todays (12/7/13) speech on Rudolf Hess titled "Rudolf Hess: New Facts on his Mission & Death". The speech is to be held at the Dine restaurant at 733 W Madison St. in the Crowne Plaza Hotel at 7:15 PM. We are urging antifascists and anti-racists to call Dine (opens at 6am) and tell them who David Irving is and why you think they should pull the plug on his event.

Dine                        
733 W Madison St
Chicago, IL 60661
(312) 602-2100   or....
Crowne Plaza Hotel
(312) 829-5000

Here is a prompt you can use when calling (Be nice to the staff working there, they have no idea who he is or what he is doing there):

"Hello I am calling to urge you and your restaurant to not allow David Irving a platform to speak this evening. David Irving is a known Holocaust denier and flagrant neo-Nazi, I do not appreciate your business allowing such a scumbag to organize an event in my community; respectfully I ask that you cancel the event now."
