Subject: NCLR Launches “We Can Stop the Hate” Website 2.0 to Combat Hate in
the Immigration Debate
Washington, DC—A revamped website launched by the National Council of
La Raza (NCLR) documents how hate groups in the U.S. have been reenergized by
the immigration debate and how the growing intolerance fanned by these groups
is leading to a record increase in hate crimes against Latinos. The acclaimed
website, www.WeCanStopTheHate.org spotlights hate in the immigration debate
with analyses of the leading groups, spokespeople, and media allies of the
anti-immigrant movement.
“Given that dozens of anti-immigrant talk show hosts and organizations
have descended on Capitol Hill this week, it is especially important that
information on what these entities are really all about is readily available to
those interested in combating intolerance,” noted Janet Murguía, NCLR President
and CEO. “Regardless of how one feels about immigration policy, we can all
agree that a hate-filled debate is not acceptable.”
The website, originally launched in January of this year, has been
redesigned to make it easier for visitors and users to find information, obtain
the latest updates, and learn how to get involved. Its features include an
extensive library of videos on the links between anti-immigrant and extremist
organizations throughout the country; fact sheets on, among other topics, the
code words of hate used in the debate and the most prominent media spokespeople
from these anti-immigrant and extremist groups; and frequently updated posts,
called “The Latest,” on incidents of hate in the media, from policymakers and
others.
The new website can be found at www.WeCanStopTheHate.org
