Event | How Does the Inland Empire Strike Back Against Hate?
Abstract
In the 1920s, Southern California’s Inland Empire was a bucolic place, dotted with small towns set amid orange groves. It was also a growing outpost for the Ku Klux Klan, whose members subjected the region’s minority residents to exclusion, harassment, and violence in following decades. Today, antisemitic, anti-Muslim, anti-Black, anti-Latino, anti-Asian, and anti-LGBTQ movements persist, with hate crimes again on the rise, alongside a new generation of domestic extremist groups. Can the region’s battles against discrimination chart a path forward for the rest of the state, and nation? The event is held Tuesday, July 16, 2024 6:30 PM PDT Riverside In-Person | Streaming Online
