No hate. Not our city, town, state.

Tax deductible
Salem, Massachusetts, Boston and surrounding communities unite to stop bias and hate based incidents after recent local surge. Fundraising Campaign for the Anti-Defamation League launched.

U.S. incidents involving harassment of American Jews, “particularly since November” have jumped to 86 percent in the first quarter of 2017, new data from the organization shows. The 2016 presidential election and the heightened political atmosphere played a role in the increase, according to the Anti Defamation League.

Marginalized communities accross the United States are under attack at unprecedented rates. Although earlier this month the U.S. Senate passed a resolution condemning “anti-Semitism, hate crimes, bias and discrimination in all forms,” incidents of hatred against the Jewish community have drastically escalated in 2017, read a new report by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL). 

Jack McDevitt, director of the Institute on Race and Justice at Northeastern University said to the Boston Globe “traffickers in hate focus on any target that is available, including people of color, Muslims, and those who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender. But Jewish people and organizations may bear a larger brunt of the offenses because synagogues and Jewish cemeteries are easy to find, and Swastikas easy to paint.”

The Anti Defamation League's No Place for Hate® initiative provides communities with an organizing framework for combating bias, bullying and hatred, leading to long-term solutions for creating and maintaining a positive climate. We stand with the mission of the ADL to stop the defamation of the Jewish people, and to secure justice and fair treatment to all... 

When Chicago attorney Sigmund Livingston founded ADL in 1913, he envisioned an America where those who seemed different were not targets of discrimination and threats, but were equals, worthy of shared opportunity and a place in the American dream.

This vision remains relevant today, its call to action as urgent.

We stand together with the ADL in the charge to fight bias and hate of any kind, toward any group at any time. 
We will not be bystanders.
