The Hate You See
Dear Campus Community,
This October, we witnessed what some have called “72 Hours of Hate” – a fatal shooting of two African-American shoppers at a grocery store, mail bombs sent to media outlets and Democratic leaders and activists, and the murders of 11 people by a shooter at Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.
In light of these incidents and others, this Friday the CEC Education and Dialogue Working Group will lead a discussion of hate, and the role social media plays in encouraging perceptions that lead to hate crimes and hate speech. Join the conversation, “The Hate You See,“ from noon to 1 p.m. in Linderman Library, Bayer Galleria, Room 342.
Lunch is provided.
This event is part of a year of programming examining how preconceived ideas impact our beliefs and actions. All are welcome.
If you are an individual with a disability and need accommodations in order to participate in this event, please contact Maria Zullo at maz317@lehigh.edu or 758-4152.
We look forward to seeing you!
