An anonymous group of vigilantes works to identify racists, a legally gray tactic known as doxxing that comes with plenty of risk for all.
“Fallon” is not her real name. It’s a pseudonym she’s using because
she wants to remain anonymous. She knows that can be an elusive goal,
chiefly because of people not unlike her.
When I first contacted Fallon, here is what she told me about
herself: she’s in her mid-30s; she’s white; she has children; she works a
9-to-5 office job; and she lives in Ohio. She has a voice like a school
teacher or a nurse, steady and determined. She loves PowerPoint slides
and spreadsheets. She seems organized, efficient and articulate.
She also says she is part of Great Lakes Antifa, a self-described
group of anti-fascist activists. Within her local antifa group, she says
she is part of an even smaller collective. These are what are known as
the antifa “doxxers.” In the evenings and her spare time, Fallon says
she researches and reveals the identities of neo-Nazis in America.
