9 April 2024 - 7:00 pm
Join us in Waterloo on April 9 for EPISODE 3: TOOLS & TACTICS, with historian and journalist, Jelani Cobb, as he shows how hatred is fostered through propaganda, dehumanizing tactics, the internet, and symbols. EPISODE 4: EXTREMISM follows, with conflict resolution and extremism expert Sasha Havlicek, as she explains why people are drawn to ruthless ideologies that incite violence and cruelty.
The disconcerting rise in prejudice, bigotry, contempt, and hate crimes in the world is being driven by all kinds of hatred, including racism, ageism, misogyny, homophobia, cultural intolerance, and political derision. In the six-part series “Why We Hate,” the root causes of hate are examined with the hope of learning how to overcome it.
