Domestic Terrorism in Plain Sight: White Supremacy, State Violence, and the Assault on Democracy

The United States is under siege, not by a foreign enemy, but by the Trump administration, which has transformed governance itself into a form of domestic terrorism in the service of a white supremacist state. By domestic terrorism, I mean the use of state-sanctioned intimidation, disappearance, and violence against civilian populations in order to discipline dissent, enforce racial hierarchy, and normalize fear as a mode of governance. Masked agents in unmarked vehicles, dressed in battlefield gear and operating beyond any recognizable legal authority, now stalk the streets, abducting, brutalizing, and in some cases killing people. Citizens and non-citizens alike are rendered disposable. Reason and the rule of law have collapsed, replaced by the naked exercise of state violence in defense of an apartheid politics.
