But what if its defining characteristics have appeared much closer to home?<br><br>In <b><i>100 Years of Fascism<\/i><\/b>, Richard Avila presents a provocative examination of fascism as a pattern of authoritarian behavior rather than a political label. Drawing on historical events spanning the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, he traces how propaganda, censorship, racial segregation, political repression, militarism, and the concentration of power have repeatedly challenged democratic ideals.<br><br>From the rise of Mussolini and Hitler to Jim Crow segregation, the Red Scare, Cold War interventions, contested elections, and controversial wars, Avila connects seemingly separate moments into a sweeping narrative that invites readers to reconsider the forces that shape governments and societies.<br><br>Thoroughly researched and unapologetically thought-provoking, <b><i>100 Years of Fascism<\/i><\/b> challenges conventional assumptions and encourages readers to examine history through a different lens. Whether you agree with its conclusions or not, this compelling work offers an engaging exploration of power, liberty, and the enduring struggle to preserve democratic freedoms.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#f5f5f5\">\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><strong>About The Author<\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Richard Avila is a graduate of Los Angeles&#8217; Garfield High School, East Los Angeles College, Occidental College and the U.C.L.A.
