40 Hate Organizations Active In Pennsylvania, Map Shows

After a white nationalist gathering whipped up violence — resulting in the death of an anti-racism protester — in Charlottesville, Virginia, the Southern Poverty Law Center is reminding Americans that organized hate isn't a thing of the past. The SPLC says nearly 1,000 organizations that meet its criteria for being designated a hate group are currently active nationwide, and more than three dozen of those are right here in Pennsylvania.

The SPLC says 40 hate groups — from white supremacists to anti-LGBTQ, KKK and black separatist organizations — are active in the Keystone State.

The SPLC website has an interactive map showing the location of hate groups state by state. The map was compiled using hate group publications and websites, citizen and law enforcement reports, field sources and news reports, according to the SPLC.

Pennsylvania has among the highest number of hate groups. Only four states — California, Texas, New York and Virginia — have more organized hate.

Hate groups are defined by the SPLC as having beliefs or practices "that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics."
