Inaugural Webinar Event:- Sunday 10 October, 1pm-5.30pm (British Summer Time)
Presented by the Working Group on Propaganda and the 9/11 Global ‘War on Terror’
21st Century Wire's Patrick Henningsen introduces Dr. Richard Ellefritz.
Richard Ellefritz is an assistant professor of sociology at the University of the Bahamas. During his doctoral program, he applied his area of concentration in social movements to the 9/11 Truth movement. His ongoing research on movement-countermovement dynamics compares his interviews and ethnographic research with the 9/11 Truth movement to its countermovement antagonists. His area of research specifically focuses on the role of anti-conspiracy discourse in stigmatizing and silencing speech that raises troubling questions about historically significant events.
