The Dangerous Echo of Polarized Voices

What happens when your newsfeed becomes a battlefield?

In this episode, we sit down with Amy Pate, Executive Director at the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START), to explore how words can fuel violence. From identity-based polarization to the role of social media algorithms, we examine how communication itself can escalate political tensions and, in some cases, inspire acts of violence.
