Vijesti: Far-Right Group Uses Sports To 'Create Paramilitary'
“... Aleksandar Ritzman, a researcher at the international organization Counter-Extremism Project and an advisor to the Radicalization Awareness Network at the European Commission, said that "he has never seen any network in right-wing extremism spread so quickly." He says AC is a "sophisticated operation" and warned that if the movement is "allowed to continue to operate and multiply, the likelihood of targeted political violence will increase." He said that its goal is to "create a kind of paramilitary that hides behind the image of a sports club, while actually preparing for organized violence." "When the violence starts, members and groups will not subsequently publish a manifesto," he said. "This is different from the other kind of extreme right-wing terrorism, where manifestos with all sorts of explanations and theories are published after an attack."”

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.
