NPR: Leading Anti-Terror Technologist Says Suspend Facebook Live Following Mosque Shootings
CEP Senior Advisor Dr. Hany Farid discusses the failure of Facebook to prevent more than 300,000 copies of the New Zealand massacre video from being reuploaded. "The repeated uploading is an absolute failure and its inexcusable because we have the technology to stop it. And if your technology isn't working, then you haven't innovated enough. You can't claim this is hard problem, it's the same video. It's the same video, how can this be that hard of a problem? I simply don't buy that argument."

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.
