FBI Director Chris Wray told the Senate this month that anti-government violent extremism including militia extremism and the sovereign citizen movement has experienced a “huge uptick” in the past year, with some of the movements represented in the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6. This webinar will delve into what Wray called a “broad bucket” of movements grounded in ideologies ranging from eco-fascism to conspiracy theories, and discuss how law enforcement can better recognize threats tied to anti-government extremism.

Speakers:

Alex Friedfeld, Investigative Researcher, Center on Extremism, Anti-Defamation League
Allison McDowell-Smith, Co-Founder and Deputy Director of the American Counterterrorism Targeting and Resilience Institute (ACTRI)
Bridget Johnson, Managing Editor, Homeland Security Today
