Every day we hear that the upcoming elections are a referendum on whether or not the United States remains a democracy. But for many years anti-democratic – in fact, outright fascistic – tendencies have been threatening communities around the country and definitely here in Oregon. On this episode of Locus Focus we talk with Amy Herzfeld-Copple, Executive Director of Western States Center, about the threats to democracy posed from elements on the right, ranging from outright white supremacists to many factions within the Republican Party. Amy, welcome to Locus Focus.
