Friend, At the SPLC, Thanksgiving is a chance for us to reflect on our gratitude for each and every one of our supporters. We could not do any of our work without the commitment of supporters like you, so we want to say, once again, thank you. Thank you for helping us monitor hate groups and extremists, track the spread of their ideologies and expose their activities to the public, media and government officials. Thank you for helping us stand up for the rights of children in the Deep South and across the country, ensuring they have equitable opportunities to reach their full potential. Thank you for helping us protect the rights of immigrants and their families, especially in a political climate more polarized about immigration – and the vital role migrants play in our society – than ever. Thank you for helping us advance the rights of members of the LGBTQ community, because despite recent noteworthy gains, many barriers to full equality under the law remain. Thank you for helping us combat the devastating effects of poverty and economic injustice, particularly in the Deep South and in communities of color. Thank you for helping us push for long-overdue criminal justice reform, seeking to create a system that respects and protects the dignity and humanity of all people. Thank you for helping us fight back against rampant voter suppression efforts in legislatures across the country, because we must not allow discriminatory voting practices to undermine our democracy. Thank you for helping support our Learning for Justice program, which continues to provide free, high-quality antiracist educational materials to advocates and educators across the country. Thank you for helping us continue to improve our Civil Rights Memorial Center in Montgomery, Alabama, which chronicles the history of the civil rights movement and honors its martyrs – and which will soon reopen after an exciting, top-to-bottom renovation. With supporters like you on our side, we are determined to continue the march for justice, this holiday season and beyond. Best wishes, Your friends at the Southern Poverty Law Center
