Looking ahead to 2024, threats from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists continue to worry the Department of Homeland Security. In this semester’s Schatt Lecture, Cronkite professor Mark Greenblatt, the executive editor of the Cronkite School’s Howard Center for Investigative Journalism, will examine why white supremacists and lone actors pose a threat, while a smaller and more extreme subset seeks to launch attacks with the intent to destabilize society and trigger a race war. Before joining the Cronkite faculty this summer, Greenblatt led reporting for “Inside the Global Fight for White Power,” an investigative documentary that won first place in the 2023 National Headliner Awards and which, after its release, resulted in the U.S. Department of State newly designating individuals as terrorists who were in or linked to his reporting.
This event will take place on Oct. 30 from noon to 1:30 p.m. with the reception at noon and the lecture beginning at 12:30 p.m. You can watch the event here.
