01 SMC UAH - small

United Against Hate Week (September 21-27, 2024) is a call for local civic action to stop the hate and implicit biases that are a threat to the safety and civility of our neighborhoods, towns, and cities. We want to empower local residents to take action in their local communities and alter the course of this growing intolerance. When cities and their residents work together against hate, we can restore respect and civil discourse, embrace the strength of diversity and build inclusive and equitable communities for all.

Join us! You can post signs, host events, share stories, attend rallies, and connect with schools and neighborhood civic institutions. Nothing is too small, because working united in each community is what will defeat hate in all communities. Learn more at unitedagainsthateweek.org.

Do you stand against hate?

Tell us more! Send an email to ImmigrantServices@smcgov.org responding to these prompts:

  • "I stand against hate because _______________________." -OR-
  • "A hate-free California looks like  ______________________________."

We encourage you to send a photo or short video holding a United Against Hate sign! Send us your text, photos and videos for a chance to be featured on our social media.
