CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler interviewed on the 10th anniversary of the Paris terror attacks: “France is marking the 10th anniversary of the Paris terror attacks by Islamic State Jihadists, who killed more 130 people and wounded hundreds more. President Emmanuel Macron is visiting each one of the sites where gunmen and suicide bombers carried out the attacks to pay his respects to the victims of France's worst terror incident. Commemorations are being held across the capital. Tributes started last night at the Place de la République, where Parisians gathered with candles, flowers and handwritten notes at the base of Marianne, the national symbol, as they did in 2015.”

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.
