The State of Extremism in America

What is the status of extremism in America? Are there more extremists or are they more emboldened? Why is it happening now and what can be done? The Anti-Defamation League is a leading anti-hate organization. Founded in 1913 in response to an escalating climate of antisemitism and bigotry, its timeless mission is to stop the defamation of the Jewish people, and to secure justice and fair treatment to all. Today, ADL continues to fight all forms of hate with the same vigor and passion. ADL is a global leader in exposing extremism and delivering anti-bias education, and is a leading organization in training law enforcement. ADL is the first call when acts of antisemitism occur. ADL’s ultimate goal is a world in which no group or individual suffers from bias, discrimination or hate.   MLF ORGANIZER Patrick O'Reilly NOTES MLF: Psychology SPEAKERS Seth Brysk Central Pacific Regional Director (Northern California, Utah, and Hawai'i), Anti-Defamation League; Former Regional Director (Los Angeles), AJC Patrick O'Reilly Psychology MLF Chair In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are currently hosting all of our live programming via YouTube live stream.
