Community Discussions

The FBI estimates that more than 7,000 hate crimes occur in the United States each year.

Whether we hear about them in the news or read about them in the paper, they become external. Many of us do not acknowledge or understand the role hate plays in our everyday lives. Furthermore, often times we do not consider how we contribute to the problem or what we can do to change it. This discussion will lead participants on a journey to help them identify how hate manifests itself in their everyday lives and what they can do to stop it.

Participants will discuss how individuals contribute to the problem and what they can do to forward the process of replacing hate with understanding, compassion and acceptance.
