Martha Crenshaw on preventing domestic terrorism
(2/25/21) \u201cThe problem the authorities faced on Jan. 6 was not an inability to respond, but failure to anticipate the threat,\u201d Dr. Martha Crenshaw, senior fellow at Stanford University\u2019s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies wrote in her Feb. 10 op-ed for the New York Times entitled I\u2019ve Studied Terrorism for Over 40 Years. Let\u2019s Talk About What Comes Next. In this installment of Leonard Lopate on WBAI, Martha examines the ways the national security apparatus missed the mark on domestic terrorism and what can be done to disrupt the same kinds of white nationalist groups that were behind the Capitol riots.
