This Monday, United Against Hate Week began in Redwood City, where, through various activities, a call is made to civic action to stop all behaviors that are based on hate, discrimination and racism, among other ways of harming anyone in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"United Against Hate Week is a call to local civic action to stop hate and implicit bias that are a dangerous threat to the safety and civility of our neighborhoods, towns and cities," the city council said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

United Against Hate Week grew out of a United Against Hate poster campaign created by Bay Area cities in response to white supremacist rallies in Berkeley and San Francisco in 2017. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will also provide tangible communication techniques to interrupt microaggressions in the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
