On May 13th, author and researcher Dr. Craig Johnson joined the Program on Extremism in an event to discuss his new book, How to Talk to Your Son About Fascism. The book is a practical guide for parents, guardians, and others on how to talk to young men about fascism, the far-right, and their recruitment tactics. The book examines how and why the far right has historically targeted young men and offers recommendations on how to counter their influence. Research Fellow Luke Baumgartner moderated this event.
