"Dying For A Fight," the second installment in Somethin' Else’s The Fault Line series, explores the 2019 killing of Sean Kealiher, an anti-fascist and anarchist. Kealiher was murdered outside a Portland bar known for its anti-fascist crowd. Nearly two years later, his death remains unsolved, with his mother, Laura Kealiher, suspecting police bias due to his politics.
