whether they were white supremacists or more of an antigovernment motivation. strainnately, there is a of both called acceleration mizzen -- accelerationism seeking to precipitate a civil war. instance, the groups have an not necessarily motivated by white supremacy. if you look at a group like the -- that is very clearly there moderation. -- they are motivation. by committing acts of violence, you can precipitate and --aveling of complex conflict between society and elements of government, that is an extreme concern. the connection between those goals of these ideologies is a concern. >> i think the toxicity of this election environment has been in accelerant of its own unto these types of activities. just as recently as yesterday, the home of the secretary of state of michigan was surrounded armed with signs and some armed with guns. her family and her four-year-old were in the house. this is undetectable and civil society. partiesleaders in both at all levels speaking out against this. amna: we should also note that the proud boys have been showing up in pers

would like to addressss that first. >> is a very good question and it tasks on certain types of white supremacist extremist groups like the white power skinheads or the white nationalist groups which g is about a hyper- masculine hyper- violent type of culture and ideology. i think it is a prevalent theme in the connection between atac's and domestic violence is a really important observation and if you look at the secret service's mass attack and public spaces report what it consistently shows year after year the vast majority of individuals who became radicalized and chose violence and mass attack had something in their background that indicated they might be presenting a concn, somebody had generally identified a violent street and icesented that to police through school resource officer to a mental health professional and there was an opportunity for intervention and opportunity to redirect off of that pathway. i think providi that information in the training the secret service does to ste and local authorities to school resource officers and explaining the connection between domestic violenc

the white supremacists don't necessarily have a need quite yet.the tempo for isis cases has significant dropped. in 2015, you had fbi agents i was interviewing, they work 18 hours day and wouldn't see family for weeks and cancel family picnics to deal with cases. it's a different dynamic. one other thing to look at for the different dynamic is the charges. some in the fbi argue that the tempo hasn't dropped too much but what has changed we are kicking cases earlier on. we are arresting individuals for false statements of the fbi or gun charges and before we would let it build up to terrorism case. they'll say, there's only been a dozen cases you know about but there's two dozen you don't because we don't put the word isis when we arrest a guy for gun charges. that's what we are talking about when we don't have a full picture of isis in america and will take quite a bit to do so. i will say to my colleagues in law enforcement, i'm still looking. i will find the cases because we are just diggers by the nature and investigators and i think it would,

unfortunate surprises as trump supporters continue to protest the results of a decided election the white supremacist wing of his base set their sights on attacking the black church white nationalist groups the sentinel washington d.c. over the weekend tearing down black lives matter banners and signs into historically black churches in downtown d.c. they deface property and lit fires d.c. police are investigating the crimes as hate crimes take a look at some of the footage we gathered on the ground. there. that. according to the black lives matter organization the white nationalist groups targeted ashbury united methodist church the oldest african-american church to remain at its original site this church was founded in 836 they also attacked metropolitan amy. a series of videos of the attacks were posted by the proud boys on twitter. pastor say this is reminiscent of cross burnings. you know that's of so interesting about that story is that while a lot of us of the heard about you know that there was these protests and they got violent and you know the transporters go violent over the weekend in wa

the participation of white people as outside agitators, or i know that there are reports of white supremacists infiltrating some of the demonstrations, and i think that those are things that we have to pay attention to, keep track of and try to understand, but i think we cannot dismiss in a widespread way the participation of young white people because we have to see that what has happened over the last decade has gutted their lives, too. and there has been some discussion about this with perhaps their parents' generation, with the description of deaths by despair, so we know that the life pectancy of ordinary white men and women has gone into reverse. something, by the way, that does not typically happen in the developed world. it is driven by opioid addiction, alcoholism and suicide. and so, this generation, whose lives really -- you know, if you've graduated from college, your life has been bracketed by war at the turn of the 21st century, by recession, and now by a deadly pandemic. and so, i think we're seeing the convergence of a class rebellion with racism and racial terrorism at the cen

certainly there are white supremacists who are now pleading victimhood they're being eliminated. there is a wide variety of language and disguises for this , but i think it's important to say that we have an ethic of our society that it is attention we want equality and we want freedom. freedom to discriminate against others, freedom to put ourselves above others. equality of opportunity and as long as the equality of opportunity and speech and employment and a free society is maintained, that i think is very powerful. but when we have intimidation, terrorism. in america today we are fighting a war on terror, we talk about that all the time the headlines, i wish more headlines would address the terrorism domestically. because we are dealing with the fact that our society cannot maintain itself if we have people resorting to intimidation, silencing and violence. >> you can watch this and other programs on the histories of communities across the country at c-span.org/cities tour. this is american history tv on the at c-span 3.

the ideology behind a white supremacist it usually leads one to the conclusion that you must overthrow the u.s. government so that you can establish a white nation state for the preservation of your race. so they are intentionally or inherently anti-government in their mindset so if you have 75,000 to 100,000 people in this country that already have that bent and then you add to it a pretty significant number, maybe millions of people in the country that now believe that their government -- that there has been this massive fraud, that their voice is no longer heard, that things have been stolen from them they become much more susceptible from recruitment tactics from these hard core violent extremists. we are setting ourselves up for probably a generational fight with violent extremism in our country. >> could i just add real quick, to elizabeth's point, look at where they are -- look who they are accusing of fraud, big diverse cities. atlanta, philadelphia, detroit and so forth. not the suburbs where donald trump declined even more. if you look at where the litigation or his own rheto

we proudly pass that bill in -- a big way, to again these bases were named purposefully for white supremacists, people who had fought in the confederacy -- traitors to our country. purposely these bases were named for them. it wasn't as if they named it about something and upon other research it emerged they said this that or the other. no. it was intentional. so we must properly, and with the process spelled out in the bill, change that. in light of that respect for our country and the people of our country, i'm so pleased with what we did under the leadership of mr. clyburn, the beautiful diversity of america. this week, we will mark the 150th anniversary of the first african-american being elected to the congress of the united states. congressman joseph rainey. it will come as no surprise to any of you that he is from south carolina. because that was very much a part of the pride that mr. lyburn took. that he was the first african-american congressman was reason enough and he presided over the house of representatives. the first african-american to preside over the house of representatives.

president who since day one spewed xenophobia and racism that is book ended to this weekend when white supremacists ran amok through our nations capital and vandalized black churches and the president did not say a single word. that abdication of moral leadership from the white house has never been quite so clear. the poison directed at latinos, at asian americans, at black americans, at muslim americans who the president has used as a punching bag and a scapegoat. derrick is right to point out. i have learned so much from him. i feel so grateful to be siblings in arms with derrick and kathy and so many other activists. to take on the threat that is facebook, couldn't have happened if not for these alliances. but it is going to be a long road to repair the damage that has been done. children are no longer separated at the border, so asian people are no longer harassed in the streets and blamed for this virus, so black activists can say clearly and know they are heard when we save black lives -- when we all say that black lives matter. the hate has to end, and it has to end now. david: those are ope
