‘We Have Been Lazy on Hate’
Farah Pandith wants the U.S. government and corporations to do more to combat radical extremists as they recruit Millennials.
After the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Farah Pandith worked in the Bush and Obama administrations as they tried to combat violent Islamist extremism. Starting in 2009, as the State Department’s special representative to Muslim communities, she began meeting with Muslim youths in almost 100 countries.
In her estimation, the United States is not doing enough to prevent Millennials and members of Generation Z from being recruited by extremist groups.
