Summary:This contribution to a journal special issue on comparative populisms investigates the necessity and possibility of queer of color critique's engaging authoritarian formations in the contemporary moment. Initiated as an examination of neoliberal formations, queer of color critique must - the paper argues - train its interests on and develop its theorizations around the emergence of fascist formations around the globe. To do so, it turns to the anti-fascist work of the Frankfurt School as well as the lesser known anti-fascist writings and insights coming from the black radical tradition, scholarship within North American indigenous studies, and anti-racist feminist cultural production.
