Adama Ba and the Impact of Domestic Terrorism Labels

Adama Ba shares her experience of being 16 years old when the NYPD Terrorism Task Force and FBI raided her Harlem apartment in 2005. She argues against the creation of new domestic terrorism laws, noting that such statutes historically target minority communities rather than the groups they are ostensibly designed to stop. The narrative highlights the long-term psychological and legal consequences of being labeled a potential suicide bomber by the state without evidence.
