About This Event

Join us for the screening of the Twin Cities PBS documentary that dives into one of Minneapolis’s untold histories: that of the Baldies, a 1980s multiracial skinhead gang who fought Neo-Nazis in the streets of Minneapolis, and later organized themselves into Anti-Racist Action (ARA), a nationwide network of anti-racist activists. 

Skinhead culture started as multi-cultural, working-class, and anti-racist, but soon was co-opted by white supremacy. This youth subculture solidified during a growing movement across the United States against anti-fascism. 

Following the film, we'll be joined by former Baldies members and film director David Roth for a panel discussion to learn more about the history of anti-racist skinhead organizing.

Registration is required.
