White supremacy is one of the most "persistent and lethal
threats" facing our nation right now.
Dear friend,
The SPLC has been fighting racism, hate and extremism for more than
half a century now, but we've never seen a threat like what
we're facing today. This threat is taking direct aim at Black
and Brown communities in the South and across the country.
Recently, a national security review by the Biden administration found
that white supremacy is one of the most "persistent and lethal
threats" facing our nation right now. The latest FBI hate crime
report documented the highest number of hate crimes recorded since the
agency began collecting data.
That's why we are thrilled to announce a special opportunity for
you to make an even greater impact on our work. Thanks to a generous
group of SPLC supporters, all year-end donations will be matched
- dollar for dollar - up to $1 million.

We know we don't need to convince you of the gravity of the
threat we face. As a supporter of our mission, you already understand
what makes this moment so dangerous. In the Deep South and beyond, the
radical right is carrying out shameful attacks on voting rights
intended to undo decades of progress. They are normalizing racist and
antisemitic rhetoric like the Great Replacement conspiracy theory
implicated in last year's horrific anti-Black massacre in
Buffalo, NY. They are brazenly attempting to whitewash Black history
and silence Black, Brown and LGBTQ+ voices in schools.
The looming threat of political violence hovers over us, tied directly
to these attacks on diversity and civil rights. Our country is
teetering on the edge of the abyss... and it's the moral courage
and leadership of people like you that will save us. Friend, you are an essential partner in this work. Please
make a contribution in support of our work today when it will be
matched, dollar for dollar, doubling your impact.

Whatever you're able to give will be immediately doubled with
the matching funds and help make sure the SPLC has the resources
urgently needed for our 2024 Action Plan for Justice and Equity:
1. Defending Voting Rights and Supporting Democracy
2. Fighting Hate and Extremism
3. Keeping Hate from Poisoning the Next Generation
4. Ending the Criminalization of Poverty and Fighting for Economic
Justice

We have our work cut out for us. But no one is better equipped than
the SPLC to take on the far-right extremist movement laying siege to
our democracy. We are confident that our movement is stronger than
hate. Together, with the passion, commitment, and leadership of people
like you, we are capable of building a world where justice is a
reality for all.
The march continues,
Your friends at the Southern Poverty Law Center
