Former Jihadi Extremist & Executive Officer, Parallel Networks
Jesse Morton was once a prominent jihadi extremist and founded Revolution Muslim, a New York City-based recruiter group active in the noughties. After serving a prison sentence for terrorist activity, he assumed his current role as executive director at Parallel Networks, a US-based non-profit dedicated to combating violent extremism. 

Today, he stands for counter-messaging, prevention, education, training and awareness campaigning, and lends his experience to support programmes for terrorism-related offences that enable reformers to return to society after incarceration in America.
