A Call to Social Justice Movements
Over 100 grassroots, advocacy, and movement organizations calling upon broader movements, civil rights organizations, and anti-hate groups to firmly reject the government’s attempts to manipulate hate violence, antisemitism, and Islamophobia to further expand state criminalization. We reject the state’s attempts to use this increased violence to expand hate crime laws. These initiatives do not address community safety. Instead, they simply expand state power and criminalization while ignoring the fact that the state itself has laid the groundwork for this violence.
