Friend,

We invite you to join us on Wednesday, March 9, for a virtual briefing
to mark the release of the Year in Hate & Extremism 2021 -
the latest edition of our annual report tracking hate across the
nation.

This 90-minute livestreamed event will feature two separate panel
discussions. Susan Corke, director of the SPLC's Intelligence
Project, will lead a discussion on the research analysis that goes
into our annual Year in Hate report, and Lecia Brooks, SPLC chief of
staff and culture, will moderate a conversation on community
resilience.

The event will also include a Q&A session and a recorded
conversation with Congressman Bennie G. Thompson (D-Miss.) and SPLC
President and CEO Margaret Huang about today's climate of hate
and extremism in the U.S. We'll also take a deep dive into
policy related to hate and extremism with SPLC Chief Policy Director
LaShawn Warren as she speaks with members of Congress.

The SPLC has published the Year in Hate & Extremism, an annual
census and analysis of hate groups and extremist organizations, each
year since 1990. We define a hate group as an organization that
- based on its official statements or principles, the statements
of its leaders, or its activities - has beliefs or practices
that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their
immutable characteristics. The FBI uses similar criteria in its
definition of a hate crime.

We hope you can join us on March 9 for these important and timely
discussions. Don't forget to click here to RSVP!
