Understanding political violence, and how to fix it

Season 2025 Episode 168 | 6m 05s

Violence has become an unwelcome reality in American politics – from this weekend’s murders in Minnesota to the congressional baseball practice shooting to the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. To better understand violence and its root causes and potential solutions, William Brangham speaks with Cynthia Miller-Idriss, Professor at American University and an expert on violent extremism.
