New Europe: Google’s counter-narrative experiment cannot overcome years of neglect
Google wants you to believe it is doing its utmost to counter violent extremist content on its YouTube platform. Yet the tech company has been criticized for their record of turning a blind eye to the proliferation of such propaganda, and we should not expect a great deal of progress from its latest initiative to steer prospective jihadists away from the path to radicalisation and violence.
The Counter Extremism Project Presents
Enduring Music: Compositions from the Holocaust
Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
