The United States has experienced a rapid, significant increase in Hate-Fueled Violence (HFV)

Hate crimes, political violence, mass violence and terrorism, and violence targeting marginalized populations are all historically high.

Reported hate crimes are at all-time highs across the country

Political violence has reached its highest level in half a century
