A highly decentralized movement, antifa political activists are anti-racists who engage in protest tactics, seeking to combat fascists and racists such as neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other far-right extremists.This may involve digital activism, harassment, physical violence, and property damage against those whom they identify as belonging to the far right.
Much of antifa's activism is nonviolent, involving poster and flyer campaigns, delivering speeches, marching in protest, and community organizing on behalf of anti-racist and anti-white nationalist causes.
Individuals involved in the movement tend to hold anti-authoritarian, anti-capitalist, anti-fascist, and anti-state views, subscribing to a range of left-wing ideologies such as anarchism, communism, Marxism, social democracy, and socialism. The name antifa and the logo with two flags representing anarchism and communism are derived from the German antifa movement. SOURCE:

The Black Lives Matter Movement has brought ANTIFA to the forefront and was mainly used by the left in a attempt to OUST President Trump from office and one could say that in part it must have worked because Trump lost the election. However, neither BLM or ANTIFA will disappear from the forefront now that Biden is President and there is a good possibility that these two groups will put PRESSURE on the new administration to make some RADICAL changes as to the standing of Blacks or People of Color in our Society and while they only represent 13% the current population, their noise is bound to get them more recognition.
The problem with causes like this is that the population of the United States is largely still WHITE and they will not lay down on the ground and easily give up all the WANTS that the Blacks are demanding... and DEMANDING is the right word... DEMANDS are never met with open arms and the bigger the ASK the greater will be the RESISTENCE... not from politicians but from the GENERAL PUBLIC.
