Dear John,
I hope you and yours are doing everything you can to remain safe and healthy during the unprecedented challenges caused by COVID-19.
This Thursday, April 2 at 2:30 PM ET/11:30 AM PT, ADL is offering our third webinar in the Fighting Hate from Home series to help unite and inform our community. We invite you to sign up now.
Our focus this week will be on the world of online games: how gaming can foster positive social experiences for people of all ages during this time of social isolation, how you and your family may be exposed to hate and harassment, and smart safety practices you can use.
Join ADL’s Center for Technology and Society on the webinar along with a new ADL resource that helps families navigate harassment in online games and encourage inclusive play in these digital social spaces.
We will also discuss what the game industry needs to do during this time of increased activity to ensure the safety of players from hate and harassment, especially in light of the new World Health Organization partnership with the game industry, #PlayApartTogether, that will leverage online games to spread crucial and credible information about COVID-19.

Highlights from Last Week
During the 3/26 webinar, I spoke with Rep. Judy Chu, Rep. Sylvia Garcia and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz about how, especially in this time of fear and anxiety, words that promote antisemitism, racism and xenophobia can have dangerous repercussions. View the full webinar on our
Fighting Hate from Home YouTube playlist.
What’s Next?
Each week, we will bring you #FightingHateFromHome discussions with our team of experts and authorities from around the world, helping the ADL community make sure that hate finds no footholds during this time of crisis.
Stay well, wash your hands, and thank you for supporting ADL, and for standing up against hate.
| Sincerely, |
|
