Former Buffalo Fire Commissioner Garnell Whitfield, whose mother was killed in the mass shooting at Tops Market in Buffalo, said if there is nothing lawmakers are willing to do to end domestic terrorism, then, “you should yield your positions of influence and authority to others that are willing to lead on this issue. The urgency of the moment demands no less.” His comments came as he testified alongside a panel of academics and law enforcement professionals at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on domestic terrorism and white supremacy threats. Among the topics discussed were the rise in white supremacy, the role of social media, and gun control reform. They also discussed the “great replacement” theory, believed by many white supremacists and anti-immigrant groups, that communities of color will take away the rights of “white” America. close
