22:00 CITY CLUB FORUM – recorded Friday at The City Club of Cleveland, a citadel of free speech, Ryan Lenz, Senior Investigative Reporter, Intelligence Project, Southern Poverty Law Center; Antony McAleer, Board Chair and Co-Founder, Life after Hate; Former Organizer, White Aryan Resistance (WAR); Moderated by Darrielle Snipes
Hate among members of a community is not a new phenomenon; it's actually about as old as civilization itself. All human beings have the capacity to hate. However, what's different about hate in modern society is its speed - the widespread use of communication tools and technologies can spread hateful messages quicker than ever before.
In America, our complicated and deep history of racism and ethnic hate has provided fertile ground for hate groups. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), since 2014, the number of hate groups in the United States has increased 20 percent. Currently, there are active hate groups operating in all 50 sates - 954 in total It's a troubling statistic, especially considering the Census Bureau predicts the United States will become a minority-majority nation by 2044.
How has hate and hate groups changed through the decades? What draws people into them? As the demographics of our country change, will the way we hate change as well? And perhaps most importantly, can hate be cured?
