Black Flags Over Brooklyn 2019

An anti-fascist, anti-racist extreme metal festival held in the dark heart of Brooklyn on January 25-26, 2019.

Today, after way, WAY too long, we finally mailed out our very last KS reward packages. Domestic folks should see theirs later this week; international pals, it'll take a bit longer. I'm so sorry it took this long, and am so appreciative of the patience and grace you've shown us.

[Black Flags Over Brooklyn 2019 @blackflagsovrBK]

Just dropped off 21 packages at the post office. By my count, we only have 11 left (international total support bundles and some special shirt sizes). Thank you all so much for your patience during this wild year - Black Flags 2020 is going to steer clear of mailing projects!

We just supported @GrimKim on Patreon, and you should too. She's being attacked from every side of the political spectrum and is still here, and still one of the best journalists out there.

@blackflagsovrBK "There’s #Nazis & racists everywhere ....
There are nazis in the fucking #NYPD.
There's nazis in #ICE & #BorderPatrol, and those MFrs are engaged in #EthnicCleansing RIGHT NOW."

We interviewed bands & anti-racist organizers about the first #BlackFlags festival, anti-#NSBM, & about the confluence of #HeavyMetal & #AntiFascism.

@blackflagsovrBK @RACETRAITORcore @DLamontJenkins @OnePeoplesProj “Before I am #antifascist, I'm in the scene; the #punk scene, the music scene in general."

@OnePeoplesProj founder & organizer @DLamontJenkins told us @BlackFlagsOvrBK abt historical efforts to keep the punk & metal scenes open to all.
