Former FBI Agent Scott Payne discussed perceptions of racism within the Bureau, particularly regarding which groups receive investigative focus. Payne, who transitioned to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force following the 2015 Charleston church shooting, emphasized that domestic terrorism—especially white supremacist groups—has been a major priority. He acknowledged historical concerns about the FBI targeting being biased toward Black activist groups, but stated he has not witnessed systemic racism within the Bureau during his tenure. Payne noted that some individual officers may harbor biases, but overall, the FBI actively investigates white supremacist and hate groups. Ultimately, Payne stressed the humanity shared by all people and the FBI’s commitment to combating domestic terrorism across racial lines, reflecting a more balanced and inclusive investigative approach today.
