[Translated from Finnish] "Researcher Sofia Koller has followed and analyzed dozens of trials of ISIS women held in Germany and France. He works at the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) research institute
'Cooking and housework are not illegal activities in themselves. But in Germany, the prosecutors have argued that in the context of ISIS's territory and its activities, they must be considered terrorist acts," says Koller. "In this role, women actively supported the terrorist organization and were its members. And this reasoning has worked in court.'"
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.
