Hate Groups in America Surging: New Southern Poverty Law Center Report
Compiled by the DiversityInc staff. Date Posted: March 10, 2008

"The number of hate groups in the United States is surging, up 48 percent since 2000, according to a report released today from the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Now there are 888 such groups throughout the country, which marks an increase of 5 percent in one year.



What's fueling the spread of hate across the country? Much of the increase is in response to the harsh, unresolved immigration debate, according to the SPLC. Hate crimes against Latinos increased 35 percent from 2003 to 2006, FBI statistics found, and experts say that many of the individuals who commit crimes against Latinos believe they're attacking undocumented immigrants, reports the SPLC.

Racist, anti-immigrant propaganda makes no distinction between Latino and immigrant, undocumented or documented, the SPLC found. Election-year politics are fueling a new era of hate groups, ones that use money and power to wield influence, according to the SPLC." (Read more at: http://diversityinc.com/public/3190.cfm ).
