Stop buying from Hobby Lobby

Stop buying from Chick-fil-a

You are literally funding hate crimes

Of course the vast majority of these hate groups are White, and some mentioned on this map are not hate groups, but are seen by White people as groups that are or has the potential to be a nuisance to the advancement of White people and their laws against non-Whites, that they have to target them & label them "hate groups" for when the time comes to erase them, they will appear justified.

Rest In Power O’Shae Sibley!!!

@nytimes Reported:

“O’Shae Sibley was at a Brooklyn gas station with friends late Saturday night, filling up a car and blasting music by Beyoncé when a group of men approached and told them to stop dancing, according to friends.

The men began using slurs and Mr. Sibley, 28, a gay man who was a professional dancer and choreographer, confronted them, according to his friends and a video of the altercation. The argument escalated and one man stabbed Mr. Sibley, according to the police. Otis Pena, one of Mr. Sibley’s best friends, pressed on his wound to stop the bleeding before he was taken to Maimonides Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.”

A hate crimes task force is investigating.

Justice for O’Shae Sibley!!! ✊🏾

Prayers up for O’Shae’s family and friends. 🙏🏾🤎🕊️

"Debate your deacon and talk about it with your trustee because I don’t want to hear it.

O’Shae, may the fiercest and flyest of the angels carry you to your rest. And may your memory be a blessing to all who knew and loved you."

🇪🇸 En Londres, se ha desatado una preocupante ola de antisemitismo que afecta principalmente a la comunidad judía en áreas como Hendon, un barrio con una gran población judía. Recientemente, se distribuyeron panfletos antisemitas que pedían una “zona libre de sionistas” y contenían mensajes amenazantes, como “Que los sionistas abandonen Gran Bretaña o sean masacrados”. Además, se han registrado ataques físicos y verbales contra niños judíos, como el ataque a un grupo de alumnas de Stamford Hill, donde una niña de 14 años resultó herida. Los estudiantes judíos han reportado intimidaciones y agresiones, como el lanzamiento de piedras y basura a sus autobuses. Estos incidentes se producen en un contexto de creciente violencia, exacerbada por los recientes ataques de Hamas a Israel en octubre de 2023, lo que ha llevado a un incremento en los delitos de odio antisemitas en el Reino Unido. El gobierno británico ha respondido con medidas para abordar este aumento, pero figuras como Isaac Zarfati, director de StandWithUs UK, han advertido que se deben tomar acciones decisivas para detener esta tendencia.

Six People Killed in Racially Motivated Attack at Sikh Temple in Wisconsin 

On August 5, 2012, a white man named Wade Michael Page opened fire on worshippers at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, killing six people and seriously injuring several others before taking his own life. Between 30 and 35 people, including several children, were inside the temple that morning as community members prepared for their usual Sunday services.

Though police investigating the attack initially declined to categorize the shooting as a hate crime, Mr. Page had openly expressed white supremacist beliefs in the years leading up to the attack. The investigation later revealed images of Mr. Page wearing a “white power” shirt and posing in front of Nazi flags, which he had posted to public social media pages. 

The six people killed in the attack were Sita Singh, Ranjit Singh, Satwant Singh Kaleka, Prakash Singh, Suveg Singh Khattra, and Paramjit Kaur Saini. Baba Punjab Singh, a priest at the temple, initially survived a gunshot wound to the head that left him paralyzed; he died from his injuries in 2020.

After 9/11, crimes against South Asian, Muslim, and Arab Americans became more common. Sikh men in particular, who often wear turbans, increasingly became victims of racial profiling and racialized attacks. In the year leading up to the Oak Creek shooting, two Sikh men in a Sacramento suburb were killed in a hate attack; a Sikh temple in Michigan was vandalized; and a New York hate crime left one Sikh man severely beaten.

A month after the August 5 shooting, Harpreet Singh Saini, whose mother Paramjit Kaur Saini was killed in the attack, testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee to urge the Department of Justice to begin federally tracking hate crimes against Sikh, Arab, and Hindu people.

“I came here today to ask the government to give my mother the dignity of being a statistic,” Mr. Saini said. “The FBI does not track hate crimes against Sikhs. My mother and those shot that day will not even count on a federal form. We cannot solve a problem we refuse to recognize.”
