No Pasarán!: Antifascist Dispatches from a World in Crisis is a 500-page anthology about antifascism[1] published in 2022 by the AK press and edited by Shane Burley.[2] The Institute for Anarchist Studies[3] and Paul Messersmith-Glavin participated in the editorial process, Talia Lavin[4] wrote the foreword and David Renton wrote the afterword.

Dan Berger has called this book a "must read for today's antifascists", and Robin D. G. Kelley sad it will get "dog-eared and dirty, but not by gathering dust"[5]. In it, over 20 prolific writers from all over the world show how the historical revolutionary slogan 'They shall not pass' has been brought to the new millennium and is as relevant as ever, especially after the rise of Trumpism.
