I’m in @TheHill asking Congress to end @DHSgov’s harmful, broken terrorism prevention grants program. A DHS report justifying the grants misses the mark; our recent study shows DHS uses junk science & targets social views of Americans—including children.1/

The @DHSgov believes it can identify people who will commit mass violence in the future. But, their vague indicators can be applied to millions of innocent people & instead are often used to target minority communities. @sreynoldsBCJ calls to end TVTP.

We'll be at RightsCon! Join us for our session on CVE to learn about what separates CVE from abolitionist approaches to community safety. Our panel will be from 4:30-5:30 on Tuesday 6/8.

We've said since the start of the Countering Violent Extremism framework that it will target Muslims first and impact communities of color and movements for justice broadly. We're currently pushing to defund the DHS flagship CVE program (renamed CP3) with @stopcve coalition.

CVE relies on a noxious mix of pseudoscience and DHS mission creep, which leads to the profiling and surveillance of people with mental illnesses, Muslims, and other marginalized groups.

A new @BrennanCenter study of biased, ineffective @DHSgov targeted violence and terrorism prevention (TVTP) grants finds broken promises & ineffective methods: targeting marginalized communities, surveillance of common behaviors, and reliance on police. 1/ brennancenter.org/our-work/r…
StopCVE retweeted
CP3 and TVTP rely on debunked radicalization theory to profile people based on commonly held beliefs and behaviors. It's time to end this political surveillance and targeting of marginalized communities.
We sent a letter to the appropriators:

When children are referred to Prevent, their data is stored across at least 10 police databases even where no further action has been decided by Prevent officers themselves.

For anyone who didn't have a chance to read through the atrocious Prevent review, @AsimCP and I summarised a few of the issues which mattered the most in terms Islamophobia, racism, and the gov's management of Muslim civil society

After spending yesterday reading the awful Shawcross Prevent review, it is more important than ever to have qualified understandings of the policy. I’m pleased to share my review of @Tarek_Younis_’ excellent book on the impacts of Prevent on Muslims

Domestic terrorism charges are an intimidation tactic used in the state crackdown against Cop City protesters. These charges have serious procedural problems and represent a continuation of the "Green Scare" conflating environmental activism with terrorism. A thread:

New report from @acrecampaigns, @immdefense, @mediajustice, and @twittlesis untangles the web of big tech, DHS, and local gov that militarize local law enforcement agencies, ballooning their budgets through “counterterrorism” funding.

20 years ago DHS launched purely driven by Islamophobia. But now they're rebranding as the agency to tackle domestic terrorism. No reflection on harm or accountability, let's just expand to surveil everyone.
It's still @stopcve and abolish DHS for us!

Check out how @DHSgov's Suspicious Activity Report program criminalizes everyday activities when done by Arabs, Muslims, Black people & other people of color: aaan.org/cerp-report. #SeeSayDay

Two to one, Americans are more worried about civil liberties than terrorism.
Yet the domestic War on Terror continues.

A true crime podcast...with a side of pseudoscience.
DHS' latest round of TVTP/CVE grants might get creative, but they tread all too familiar ground. Behavioral profiling is pseudoscientific and opens the door to racial and religious bias. #stopCVE

Same goes for white supremacy in the US. Please stop throwing around extremism and domestic terrorism (vague terms that support counterterrorism policing) and name groups or violence clearly as white nationalism, etc.
A quick note on the uncritical use of the word 'extremist' in the context of Hindutva agitation in Leicester. I don't think it serves any real purpose to regurgitate this word when it is ubiquitously used to describe Muslim behaviours within a national security context

at #UnitedWeStand summit, DOJ and DHS just announced more $$$ for programs that will more deeply ingrain law enforcement in communities most vulnerable to hate violence.
With no plan on how to stop police violence and repression against those same communities.
StopCVE retweeted
We join @stopcve calling to end harmful counterterrorism policing & surveillance programs that have furthered white supremacy, especially the Islamophobic CVE/CP3 program and redirect this funding towards resources that communities impacted by white supremacist violence need.
Over 40 orgs joined us and our @stopcve coalition to urge @POTUS to stop promoting & expanding counterterrorism policing and surveillance programs in response to white supremacist violence, especially the Islamophobic CVE/CP3 program
