Agoura Hills Library Shared 'United Against Hate Week'

Press release from the Agoura Hills Library:

December 1, 2020

United Against Hate Week emerged from a United Against Hate poster campaign created by Bay Area Cities in response to white supremacist rallies in Berkeley and San Francisco in 2017. Convened by Not In Our Town, a national anti-hate organization and partner in the LA vs Hate campaign, Bay Area Cities committed to an annual week of action and awareness. United Against Hate Week has since spread to 60+ cities across the U.S.

Promoting inclusion and equity is vital to building healthy and resilient communities. This week of action is designed to not just raise awareness about the dangers of hate and the need for respect and civil discourse, but to help LA County community members build stronger connections and foster deeper engagement. The goal of United Against Hate Week is to bring communities together to learn from each other, acknowledge local concerns and seek solutions together.

Get involved! Learn how you can take action by visiting LAvshate.org or unitedagainsthateweek.org.
