While a new wave of extremists is attempting to make their hateful ideologies mainstream, we won’t let them.

Friend,

Thanks to your ongoing support, we are taking on hate and extremist groups by exposing their activities, identifying their strategies and stopping them in their tracks before they target another community.

The latest Hate Map ([link removed]), as seen in our new Year in Hate and Extremism report ([link removed]), paints an alarming picture of the white supremacy that continues to be upheld in the United States. These groups have adopted new tactics that aim to chip away at our democracy, with many of them rallying to end diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts — often calling them “indoctrination programs” and falsely claiming they promote “white genocide.”

Many of these harmful ideologies have become a central focus in our halls of power — including our public education system, our legislative bodies and the highest elected office. Instead of focusing on real issues, like affordable housing, voting rights and strengthening public education, those in power have instead listened and catered to far-right propaganda.

With 1,371 groups tracked in 2024, our work to dismantle hate and extremism is far from over. But when we work together not just to oppose these groups, but to challenge the very ideas that have emboldened them, we can build inclusive and safe communities where everyone, no matter who they are or where they come from, is free.

For over 50 years, activists like you have sustained the Southern Poverty Law Center’s work to shut down, bankrupt, expose and defeat white supremacists. And while a new wave of extremists is attempting to make their hateful ideologies mainstream — often through violence — we won’t let them.

Hate crimes are, unfortunately, still a dire threat as a result of extremist ideologies surging. And hate crime data has historically been underreported and inaccurate. Passing commonsense, forward-looking legislation is an important step towards accountability and justice for these victims.

Friend, the Improving Reporting to Prevent Hate Act would strengthen credible and accurate reporting of hate crimes and, in turn, would help confront this national problem with an inclusive and intersectional approach to countering all forms of hate. Contact your member of Congress today to ensure this legislation gets a fair hearing. >> ([link removed])
