White supremacist groups and the internal threat to America

[Cindy McMurray]

 An Ethics Institute colloquy with Dr. Zakir Gul, Department of Criminal
Justice

Wednesday, April 28, 2021, noon - 1 p.m.

(Zoom link to follow)

Extreme right-wing, white supremacist cells have become endemic to the
American political and social landscape. Racist, xenophobic, and hostile to
the values of American democracy, these groups tend to espouse conspiracy
theories, public violence and insurrection in both their rhetoric and
actions. What needs to be done to mitigate the danger such corrosive and
disruptive elements pose to American society? Dr. Zakir GulI,chair of SUNY
Plattsburgh’s Criminal Justice department, leads the conversation at the
Ethics Institute on April 28. He will provide an overview of right-wing
extremism in the U.S. and acquaint us with the work of some of the more
sinister of these movements, including their involvement in the storming of
the Capitol on January 6 of this year.

The Institute for Ethics in Public Life is generously supported by gifts to
the Plattsburgh College Foundation. For further information about the
Ethics Institute, contact Dr. Jonathan R. Slater, director, at
slaterjr at plattsburgh.edu. Ethics Institute colloquies are open to the
entire SUNY Plattsburgh community.
