In 2022, the SPLC tracked:

💥523 active hate groups
💥702 antigovernment extremist groups
💥1,225 total.splcenter.org/year-hate-extr…
The hard-right movement burrowed deeper into people’s lives in 2022, with resilient communities pushing back. #YIH22 #YearInHate22

Read: bit.ly/3OYbX9v
The #YearInHate22 report found that hard-right extremism's imprint is pervasive across the U.S., often at institutions and community spaces.

And schools have been a particular battleground. #YIH22 splcenter.org/year-hate-extr…

Law enforcement detained at least 35 demonstrators in Atlanta on Sunday, including an SPLC employee who was arrested while acting — and identifying — as a legal observer on behalf of @NLGnews #StopCopCity
This is part of a months-long escalation of policing tactics against protesters and observers who oppose the destruction of the Weelaunee Forest to build a police training facility. #STOPCopCity
The SPLC will continue to urge de-escalation of violence and police use of force against Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities — working in partnership to dismantle white supremacy, strengthen intersectional movements and advance the human rights of all people. #STOPCopCity

🧵THREAD: Despite inconsistent data reporting, the @FBI's Hate Crime Statistics Act has been the most comprehensive snapshot of hate violence in the U.S. for 30 years.

But that changed this year –– We should have no confidence in the 2021 data submitted. ImageImage
1️⃣ The data is drastically incomplete.

There were 3,300 fewer participating agencies than in 2020, including @nycgov, @LACity, @chicago, @CityofPhoenixAZ, and dozens of other large cities.

Also, essentially, the entire states of Florida and California. Image
2️⃣We recognize the continued trends of reported race-based crimes, especially targeting Blacks - which are most numerous - and increased reports of crimes against the AAPI, Sikhs and LGBTQ+ communities.

But comparing this unreliable data to previous years would be wrong. Image

📽️LIVE: SPLC President & CEO @MargaretlHuang testifies on the rise in violence against #HBCUs.

HBCUs are central to Black scholarship and the inclusion of Black voices in American dialogue.

We condemn the targeted violence and support the HBCU community. splcenter.org/news/2022/02/1…
Educational institutions, houses of worship & other community institutions have historically been safe spaces for all people – sanctuaries for communities to gather, share, learn, fellowship, and build a support network.

This is particularly true for communities of color.
The bomb threats against almost two dozen #HBCUs over the past two weeks have been deeply impactful, shaking a sense of security & safety.

Coinciding with the start of #BlackHistoryMonth, it's also reminiscent of the U.S's history of white supremacist attacks on Black churches.

Today, a jury acquitted Kyle Rittenhouse for the murders of Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum and the attempted murder of Gaige Grosskreutz.

SPLC President and CEO @MargaretLHuang issued the following in response to the lack of justice: splcenter.org/presscenter/so…
“Our hearts are with the victims in this case – the individuals killed & wounded by Kyle Rittenhouse as well as the families & community torn apart by the consequences of this deadly violence.
The acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse will add fuel to the fire of armed radicalization in America.

As the far-right expanded its network of hate online, it relied on a popular digital medium to get its message out: Podcasts.

In this four-part report, SPLC researchers @MeganSquire0 and @hannahgais detail podcasts' role in far-right mobilization: splcenter.org/techwatch
In Part 1, the researchers zeroed in on 18 different podcasts from 2005–2020.

These shows –– which featured 882 cast members on 4,046 different episodes –– revealed how extremist leaders worked together to build their movement into a political force.

For the extreme right, SPLC found that these 18 shows served as a recruitment tool, a venue for shaping their narrative around “Unite the Right,” and a place to build contacts internationally at a low cost.
