ADL Launches Major Initiative, Backspace Hate to Confront and Combat Hatred on Online

Online hate stokes fear, silences voices and causes harm to people&rsquo;s personal and professional lives. Backspace Hate is ADL's campaign to support victims and targets of online hate and harassment. We&rsquo;re raising awareness about the consequences of cyberhate and advocating for measures to hold perpetrators accountable for their actions online, including by improving state and federal laws. We need better laws, more education and increased support for victims and targets. Sign our petition to tell lawmakers that we have to do more to combat online hate and harassment. Working together we can backspace the hate and make room for good.

And we are grateful to The JCRC of Greater Washington and The Baltimore Jewish Council for their leadership in building a strong coalition to advocate for this important curricular guidance.
