Yesterday the National Security Network and the Center for American Progress Action Fund held a groundbreaking forum on domestic radicalization. Congressman Keith Ellison (D-MN) and a prestigious panel of experts, including former New York and Los Angeles Police Commissioner Bill Bratton, led the discussion. The discussion focused on the importance of working with local communities in order to both identify and counter radicalization by developing a strong relationship between law enforcement and local communities. Such actions are essential to countering domestic radicalization, and part of a broader effort to combat terrorism both at home and abroad by utilizing all aspects of American power.
