A Complex Problem We Can Conquer.
Hate Violence is on the Rise
The number of hate-based crimes continues to increase each year, with individuals being targeted for their race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and more. However, incomplete data does not capture the true severity of the problem.
The Far Right Fuels Extremism
More than 1,500 hard-right extremist groups operate across the country, pushing white supremacy, white Christian nationalism, antigovernment sentiment, antisemitism and other dangerous ideologies.
Eradicating Hate Starts with Communities
To push white supremacy out of the mainstream and remedy the harm done to communities, we must intervene proactively by supporting grassroots partners and building resilience to extremism.
What We’re Working On
Litigation
Using federal, state and local laws, we bring lawsuits against hate and extremist groups to cripple their operations.
Research and Analysis
Through our Intelligence Project, we monitor and expose white supremacists and candidates with ties to hate groups.
Public Awareness
We unmask companies that support or platform extremists, and pressure them to end relationships through boycotts.
DEI Advocacy
In court, we combat attacks on DEI policies, while advancing community-driven solutions for racial justice.
Community Education
We promote and incentivize the teaching of accurate U.S. history across racial and ethnic groups.
