Fighting Fascist Spain examines modern Spanish immigrants to the United States in their fight against fascism through the narrative arc of the Sociedades Hispanas Confederadas' periodicals Frente Popular and España Libre.

​

Using extensive and previously ignored literary, visual, and archival sources, this project explores abounding anarchist literature and antifascist humor. Workers’ public protest was fashioned by a system of traditions and institutions: grassroots associations, the alternative press, and the comic and farcical theater that provided opportunities for anarchist practice and humorous antifascism.
