Winning the War of Ideas: A Conversation with Farah Pandith

In the latest episode of the Fletcher Forum podcast, Elissa Miller, Courtney Hulse, and Maria Ory sit down with Fletcher alumna and former first-ever Special Representative to Muslim Communities at the US Department of State, Farah Pandith. As Pandith argues in her forthcoming book, How We Win: How Cutting-Edge Entrepreneurs, Political Visionaries, Enlightened Business Leaders, and Social Media Mavens Can Defeat the Extremist Threat, we must go “all in” to stop the spread of violent extremism worldwide. Drawing upon her time at the State Department and on the National Security Council, she shares her wisdom with Fletcher students and makes the case that we can stem the threat of extremist ideologies once and for all. The full interview can be found in the latest Winter print edition of the Fletcher Forum.
