Spotlight: 2011 hours against hate
The U.S. State Department has initiated the 2011 hours against hate aimed at stopping bigotry and promoting respect across lines of culture, religion, tradition, class, and gender.

This campaign encourages young people around the world to pledge their time to stop hate—to do something for someone who doesn’t look like you, pray like you, or live like you.
The Forum on Media Diversity website also has a link to this campaign on its front page. Learn more about this campaign.
