COVID-19 – Disinformation

On this edition of the program, host Carol Castiel talks with Jason Blazakis, Director of the Center on Extremism and Counterterrorism at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies in Monterey, California, about how white supremacist and other extremist groups and authoritarian regimes, like Russia, are exploiting the coronavirus pandemic to spread disinformation, creating challenges for law enforcement, local governments and minority communities as they grapple with COVID-19.
